A transformer is an electrical apparatus designed to convert transformers can be used in parallel only when their

designed to “step up” or “step down” voltages and works are used, a circulating current exists in the closed network
on the magnetic induction principle. A transformer has no between the two transformers, which will cause excess
moving parts and is a completely static solid state device, heating and result in a shorter life of the transformer. In
