This operates using electromagnetic induction when a magnetic field within one coil is created and its flow varies causing current in a different coil. <p style="margin-bottom: 16px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-position: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: medium; line-height: 1.5; font-family: "Public Sans", sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: inherit; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: rgb(39, 59, 104); text-align: start;"> Key Functions and Applications: <p style="margin-bottom: 16px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-position: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: medium; line-height: 1.5; font-family: "Public Sans", sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: inherit; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: rgb(39, 59, 104); text-align: start;"> Voltage Variation: With the use of transformers, the level of AC voltage can be increased (boost transformer) or lowered (buck transformer). This is very important when it comes to moving power over distances effectively. <p style="margin-bottom: 16px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-position: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: medium; line-height: 1.5; font-family: "Public Sans", sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: inherit; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: rgb(39, 59, 104); text-align: start;"> Isolation of Circuits: Apart from the transformer distribution, circuit transformers also serve in insulation where circuit shorting and circuit earth abnormality is prevented. <p style="margin-bottom: 16px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-position: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: medium; line-height: 1.5; font-family: "Public Sans", sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: inherit; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: rgb(39, 59, 104); text-align: start;"> Impedance Matching: Then empirically it is demonstrated that in device applications, transformers enable the matching of structures through amplifiers and external circuits operating in audio and radio bands filter removal of inherent frequencies. <p style="margin-bottom: 16px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-position: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: medium; line-height: 1.5; font-family: "Public Sans", sans-serif; font-optical-sizing: inherit; font-size-adjust: inherit; font-kerning: inherit; font-feature-settings: inherit; font-variation-settings: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: inherit; -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; color: rgb(39, 59, 104); text-align: start;"> The Way Transformers Operate: <p style="margin-bottom: 16px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-alternates: inherit; font-variant-position: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-size: medium; line-heigh
