You can get a transformer that converts the UK's 230V power to 120V, but you cannot get a transformer that will convert from 50Hz to 60Hz. Often, US equipment can work, except that they will work hotter and less efficiently on the 50Hz power. Consult your clipper and trimmer documentation - you may find that it will work just fine on 50Hz.
What has to be taken into account is what the primary and secondary voltages of the transformer are. The second thing to consider is whether the transformer is a step up or step down transformer. Just putting 250 volts on a transformer could burn the windings if the transformer is not the correct voltage.
An electric generator converts mechanical energy to electric energy while a motor converts electric energy to mechanical. A generator can actually act as a motor if it losses whatever is making it spin (called "motoring"), which is usually a very bad thing. Motors may be used as generators as well, depending on their design.
The same thing as in a fossil fueled or hydroelectric power plant.
Hi, First understand one thing seriously!! The transformer only can be rated in KVA. Bcoz, its power factor not depends on the load connected.
it trips the breakerAnswerThe transformer will overheat. But this is not necessarily a bad thing, providing the transformer is also allowed to operated below load, during which time it can then cool down. This cycle of overload/below load operation is quite usual for distribution transformers.
An apparatus for reducing or increasing the voltage of an alternating current.A person or thing that transforms something.
The result is that the transformer runs cool and contented. The '250 KVA' rating on the transformer is its maximum ability to transfer power from its input to its output without overheating, NOT an amount of power always running through it. If the 3 KVA load happens to be the only thing connected to the transformer at the time, then only 3 KVA flows into the transformer from the primary line, and only 3 KVA leaves the transformer secondary.
The frequency is dependant upon what electrical grid that you are connecting the transformerto. If you are connected to a 50 Hz grid, the transformer will output a voltage at 50 Hz. The same thing with the 60 Hz grid, the transformer will output a voltage at 60 Hz.
shell type core can be used
There is no such thing as a 'd.c. transformer'. If this is a typo, and you really mean an 'a.c. transformer', then the number of laminations will act to reduce the eddy-current losses within the core, but should not affect the turns ratio of your transformer if that's what you are trying to achieve.
A running car engine requires energy but is not a living thing. The engine converts fuel into mechanical energy to power the vehicle.
