Chapter 21, Problem 38P
A step-up transformer. A transformer connected to a 120 V (rms) ac line is to supply 13,000 V (rms) for a neon sign. To reduce the shock hazard, a fuse is to be inserted in the primary circuit and is to blow when the rms current in the secondary circuit exceeds 8.50 mA. (a) What is the ratio of secondary to primary turns of the transformer? (b) What power must be supplied to the transformer when the rms secondary current is 8.50 mA? (c) What current rating should the fuse in the primary circuit have?
