1. Working frequency, Rated power, Rated voltage,Voltage ratio,Efficiency,Insulation resistance

The core loss of the transformer has a great relationship with the frequency, so it should be designed and used according to the frequency of use, which is called the operating frequency.

2. Rated power
Under the specified frequency and voltage, the transformer can work for a long time without exceeding the output power of the specified temperature rise.

3. Rated voltage
Refers to the voltage allowed to be applied to the coil of the transformer, which shall not be greater than the specified value during operation.

4. Voltage ratio
Refers to the ratio of the primary voltage to the secondary voltage of the transformer, and there is a difference between the no-load voltage ratio and the load voltage ratio.

5. Efficiency
Refers to the percentage of the ratio of the secondary power P2 to the primary power P1. Generally, the higher the rated power of the transformer, the higher the efficiency.

6. Insulation resistance
Indicates the insulation performance between the coils of the transformer and between the coils and the iron core. The level of insulation resistance is related to the performance, temperature and humidity of the insulating material used.
