Description:

Isolated transformers, also known as isolation transformers, are electrical devices that are used to protect sensitive equipment from power surges, voltage spikes, and electrical noise by providing electrical isolation.

Senses and Usages:

Sense 1:

In the field of electronics, isolated transformers are often used to convert high-voltage signals to lower voltage signals or vice versa while maintaining electrical isolation.

Sample Sentence:

An isolated transformer is employed to convert the high-voltage output from the power supply into a low-voltage signal that can be safely used by the electronic device.

Sense 2:

In the context of power distribution, isolated transformers are utilized to provide galvanic isolation between the primary and secondary windings, ensuring safety and protecting equipment from electrical faults.

Sample Sentence:

The isolated transformer prevented any potential damage to the equipment due to a fault in the power supply.

Sense 3:

In audio applications, isolated transformers are employed to eliminate hum and ground loop noise by isolating the audio signal from the power source.

Sample Sentence:
