A high performance, high-quality transformer for your portable transformer is needed to create a well-balanced and permanent conductor path between the generator and the load. Transformer transformers must have at least five-phase capabilities to support all voltage requirements in industrial applications.
Primary windings can be of significant benefit to you if you are seeking a single winding or multi-turn winding that operates at different speeds, frequencies, and polarity. But how can you know which transformer to purchase for the job? The next article in this series will discuss the basics of selecting a transformer.

Some questions to ask yourself before making a purchase include: How much power do I need? Is my application of a domestic, industrial, or commercial size transformer?
If you have an indoor wall transformer, you can use a domestic transformer. These generally have a primary winding that will run in a single direction at one or two voltages. The output secondary windings will support higher voltages such as 115KV.
As an example, a single winding transformer will operate at either 1.5 or 3 volts. If you need one or two thousand watts of energy, you should be using a four or five-phase transformer rated at ten thousand watts. Keep in mind that the tighter the spacing between the primary and secondary windings, the lower the voltage rating of the transformer.
If you are going to be running the transformer indoors with a fan, you may want to consider a solar-powered transformer. They are ideal for outdoor use. You can attach the power cords to the roof, or wall outlet.
However, if you intend to run the transformer at large distances from a power source, a transformer with three-phase capability is necessary. This is also referred to as a three-phase voltage stabilizer.
This type of transformer has more winding space for less current, but a higher voltage output. The typical transformer with three-phase capabilities will be used for a commercial application, such as the operation of water pumps, light switches, and lighting control systems.
These transformers usually will be used to drive an oscillating current, as in an oscillating pump or fan. These types of transformers are not normally available for residential use. Residential equipment that requires a low voltage output will not be safe with a three-phase voltage stabilizer(constant voltage regulator: automatic voltage regulator stabilizer).
However, if you have an electrician on staff, you can use a transformer with four and five-phase capabilities. If you are replacing the transformer with an oscillating current, this is the ideal transformer. The transformer should provide one, two, or three hundred volts of output.
If you are starting with a project, you may choose to have your transformer with four and five-phase capabilities. Or you can move up to the transformer with three-phase capabilities as the number of equipment to be operated increases.
In conclusion, select a high-efficiency transformer with a three-phase capability for applications that require a high output level. If you are operating at a lower voltage level, you may want to consider using a three-phase voltage stabilizer, rated at five thousand watts or more.
