Hello everyone,
Am I correct in that the winding wire in a transformer is coated with a
varnish that acts as an insulator? I've tried to find an answer to this by
researching transformer construction, but haven't been able to get anything
definitive. If this is so, then I would think that winding ones own x-former
would be a tedious undertaking when the slightest knick would possibly
render the thing useless. Perhaps that's why not many people wind their own?
Or, do they? I'm asking because I am considering constructing some VERY
simple x-formers to conduct some VERY simple experiments. No Large Hadron
Collider stuff! :>
Thanks for any info you can provide...
