Types of Transformer
There are several types of transformers, depending on the application, design and
constructions.
Transformers generally have one of two types of cores: Core Type and Shell Type. These
two types are distinguished from each other by the manner in which the primary and
secondary coils are place around the steel core.
Core type - With this type, the windings surround the laminated core. The coils
used for this transformer are form-wound and are of cylindrical type.
Shell type - In shell-type transformers the core surrounds a
considerable portion of the windings. With this type, the windings are
surrounded by the laminated core.
