Secondary Winding

Description:

A secondary winding refers to the second coil of wire in a transformer. It is a crucial component that is responsible for transforming the voltage and current provided by the primary winding.

Senses and Usages:

Sense 1 - Electrical Engineering:

In electrical engineering, the secondary winding is the coil in a transformer that receives the electrical energy after it has been transformed by the primary winding. It helps in stepping up or stepping down the voltage to the desired level.


Example Sentence:

The voltage from the primary winding is transferred to the secondary winding, which then delivers the transformed electrical energy to the load.


Sense 2 - Electronics:

In electronics, a secondary winding is often found in devices such as inductors, chokes, and flyback transformers. It plays a crucial role in storing and releasing energy at specific timings.


Example Sentence:

The current flowing through the primary winding induces a corresponding voltage in the secondary winding, allowing precise control of energy storage.
