What is the amp rating of 100va transformer?

The amp rating for a 100VA transformer will vary depending on the actual voltage of the transformer. Transformers have both a primary and a secondary voltage.


How do you convert 12V to 110AC?

Is the 12V AC or DC? If it's AC, you find a transformer that can step up voltage by approximately a factor of 10, and adjust the output as necessary (e.g. with a voltage divider). If it's DC, then you can build an oscillator that runs on 12V DC and then put it into a transformer. Be sure to know how your oscillator's waveform is effected by the transformer.


What is known as control transformer?

THIS IS ONLY DESCRIPTIVE NAME - THE TRANSFORMER USED IN CONTROL PANELS ARE USED FOR STEPPING DOWN TO A LOWER AND SAFER VOLTAGE HANDLING BY TECHNICIANS - 220V,110V, 48V, 24V, 12V, 6V. USUALLY FOR THE COILS OF CONTACTORS, RELAYS, TIMERS, PROTECTIVE DEVICES, PILOT LAMPS, METERINGS.

How can calculate amps for 12v 50w halogen lamp?

The formula for current is Amps = Watts/Volts. The lamp itself would draw 4.16 amps. Since the voltage of the lamp is 12 volts there is a internal transformer involved in the fixture itself. It doesn't matter what the input (primary) voltage to the transformer is, so long as it meets the manufacturer's specification as to the proper voltage to operate the fixture.

It convert 220v or 115 to -12v and +12v by using many components and step down transformer.


Can I exchange a 12V 400MA transformer with a 12V 1.25 amp transformer without damaging the unit?

if used for charging-NO if used for supply voltage-yes


If a dc voltage of 12v is added to the secondary of step down transformer and rating of transformer is 220 input and 12v output what will be the result from primary of transformer?

A DC voltage added to one side of a transformer has no effect on the other side.


Can i use 12v -0-12v to 230v step up transformer to get more voltages let say 2000v?

If you exceed the rated voltage of your transformer, there is a high possibility that its insulation will break down and you will ruin that transformer.

NO


Can you substitute 12V. AC 40va Transformer for 12V. AC 1000ma. Home service-out door fountain?

Yes, the output current of a 40va transformer at 12 volts is 3.33 amps. The replaced unit had an output of 1 amp making it a 12va transformer. By doing this exchange there will be three times the capacity of the new transformer over the old transformer.


If a centre tap transformer rated as 12V-0-12V 1Athen what will be the secondary current of that perticular transformer?

The output voltage of a transformer is not connected to the maximum rated current. You state that the transformer is rated at 12-0-12 at a current of 1A, therefore the maximum (rated) current on the secondary would be 1A. Normally, transformers are rated in VA (volt amps) which is simply voltage x current, the voltage across the two 12v terminals would be 12+12 volts, making the rating of the transformer 24VA.


Can you use a 14.5 DC power cord on a 12V computer monitor?

No. If the transformer outputs 14.5V it is very unwise to hook it up to a 12V Monitor. The transformer needs to be able to output 12v, the polarity needs to be correct (e.g. tip + tip -), and it must be rated to provide at LEAST the required amount of amperage.


How do you convert 24volts to 12 volts?

If you want to convert 24v AC into 12v Ac, it's simple. Just get a transformer to convert 24 volts into 12 volts. This is called a stepdown transformer. If you want to convert 24v DC into 12v DC, it's more complicated. First you have to change the 24v DC into 24v AC by a switching converter that changes DC into AC. Then you would use a stepdown transformer as in the former example. Once the 24v AC is converted to 12v AC, then you use a rectifier bridge to change the 12v AC into 12v DC.


Can you run a 12 volt vw beetle with a 6 volt generator?

No. The ignition needs 12v to run, the starter needs 12v to crank, the bulbs all need 12v to get bright enough...
