Power Transformers: Basic Design and Function

Описание: In this video, I discuss the design and function of Power Transformers (PT), primarily those utilized in amplifiers. Topics such as winding ratio, output voltage, current limitations, and mounting characteristics are explained. Then, using a Fender Deluxe Reverb as an example, we analyze the voltage and current requirements of an amplifier. Using those parameters, we select an appropriate replacement PT for the amp. NOTE: These same parameters will also allow you to select the appropriate PT for a home-built amplifier project.

As if this weren't enough, star camera-hound Rusty appears several times, especially in some dramatic "Outtakes" at the end of the video.....so stay tuned until the end so you don't miss his Emmy-worthy performance.
