Description:

Demonstration transformers made by coupling coils of various turns together with laminated iron bars. Step down or step up transformers can be put together. Meters connected to the primary and secondary measure the voltage. Ratios of voltages are compared to the turns ratio. Comparisons are close. Hysteresis and eddy current losses can be discussed.
