Transformer

A transformer is a passive component that transfers electrical energy from one electrical circuit to another circuit...

Open
Conductors and Insulators

Conductors are defined as the materials or substances that allow electricity to flow through them.

Open
Series and Parallel Connection

The basic idea of a “series” connection is that components are connected end-to-end in a line to form a single path...

Open
