Transformers in UAE

Transformers

A transformer is a static device use to transfer electrical energy between a number of circuits. This is done using electromagnetic induction. They are used to change the alternating voltages in application of electric power. Since the first constant potential transformer came into existence, they are used for a number of purposes. Today, transformers are essential for transmission, utilization and distribution of alternating currents. There are different types of transformers used for different purposes in UAE. They vary in design, size and use, but are based on the same principle. The sizes of transformers range from a thumbnail to huge high voltage transformers that weigh tons. Small transformers are used to amplify or reduce voltage in small electronic objects like microphones, amps, etc.

The supply of transformers in UAE is mainly for industrial, personal and corporate use. High voltage transformer units are used to power industrial workshops, production centers, construction and even corporate houses. These high voltage power units are used in power plants, to harvest and utilize electrical current. Transformers are used to amplify voltage before it is transmitted over long distances through wires. This is done to provide a continuous flow resulting in an uninterrupted supply of power. Other uses include the production of steel and iron products using an electric arc furnace, generator step-up transformers, etc.

Transformer suppliers and producers in UAE deal with various types of transformers. The most common types include small laminated core transformers, autotransformers, oil-cooled transformers, high-voltage transformers and so on. Private Corporates and industrial managers make up for the majority of the customers. The use of transformers for personal projects and experiments add to their demand.
