About this document

Autotransformers by Maryjane MJ is a document available to read on EtoBox.

An autotransformer is a type of transformer with a single winding that serves as both the primary and secondary winding, allowing for voltage transformation without electrical isolation between input and output. It is more compact and efficient than conventional two-winding transformers, saving copper and reducing size and weight. However, it lacks electrical isolation, which can pose safety risks and allow harmonic transfer between load and supply.
