Transformers, Inductance and Common Electrical Problems w/ Ty

[@jeffb8437]

Love Ty’s enthusiasm

[@patrickcaldarone9186]

I wish I had an instructor as great as Ty 25 years ago. I’m learning more now than ever.

[@craigerickson8712]

Brian , craig, and Ty all teaching together is the the freaking justice league.

[@jamminwrenches860]

Alot of effort in making these videos for us. Not only educational but also entertaining. I see you back there checking on the cameras ; Thank you for all you do!

[@Clasped003]

Eugene khutoryanski has a great video on electrical basics and transformers also. Amazing time we live in where we get such good information for free

[@tomorrowsyoutube7138]

The Tyman returns!!

[@sxfngrs22]

I really enjoy his video. That was a really good explanation but I feel you left out an important step. It would have helped to go over how to properly size the fuse to protect the transformer. Thanks to everyone involved for such great content!

[@786hidalgo]

Magnificent I can't wait to start of technical school 🎓 first I have to learn more English before I do it

[@00ABBITT00]

He’s so good at teaching

[@sean8134]

This was an incredibly informative video, thanks guys!

Great video guys❤

Volt amperes is NOT the same as watts In Alternating Currents. The former indicates apparent power and the latter for real power.

[@jkbrown5496]

VA (volt-amperes) is the same as Watts for purely resistive loads. But for the inductive loads of solenoids, the contactor and such, you have to use VA to account for both the real power consumed and the reactive power used by the magnetic field. Latter applies to capacitors as well but they are not generally part of the HVAC low voltage circuits.

[@donnierobertson3088]

Great job and video like always

[@David.rivas.alexis]

This was nice. I learned something 👍🏻

[@resurgensix]

Super class!

[@elitesoccerblogs4947]

Can someone help , what can make the secondary side of a transformer drop its voltage if the transformer is not bad ?

[@elitesoccerblogs4947]

The transformer was replaced multiple times and it does the same on all of them ?

[@mackenziegray2090]

You might have your common and hot wire mixed.

[@Clasped003]

Good tip on the 75va xfmers. I used to do commercial lol thats all i used to carry anyways. Gtfo of here with that 50va nonsense. 75va resettable fuse all the way!

[@michaelcostello6991]

Can the low voltage wires short to ground if the low voltage side of transformer is not grounded. I think all transformers have the low voltage side grounded but i am just guessing. Please clarify this. Thank you

[@garbo8962]

Code suggest something like around 40 VA be grounded.

[@natemajezi]

Which side would be right to put the fuse on the transformer??

[@jkbrown5496]

24 vac side on what is to feed the R wire. The wire not commoned to the chassis

[@jimmylee1856]

Hello I would like to take this classes where your locations in Florida please ?

[@Ivoryfier]

Yikes! Underrated on the likes

[@YourActualMother]

Cant believe this school is literally 15 min from me! I went to FCC and was robbed of both a hvac diploma and 20k

[@azaztec3847]

It pains me to see intellectual men forced to wear muzzles while engaging in critical thinking.. shameful unionism

[@diegolopez19]

Such a shame they have to wear mask. It almost throws the whole video off. SMH lol bro this couldn’t be Texas. You get laughed at for wearing a mask around here. And before you comment @ me id ga f what you gotta say.

Jandy was here, and there.

[@corruptedbrain6]

question: have you ever seen transformer burn up even though it has a fuse. System had a bad contactor with zero ohms replaced it and system was functional crazy

[@ninamcclure2193]

Great video, I could actually hear him through the mask and he keeps you engaged. Most people might know this but all your electronics that you plug into the wall need transformers to step down the 120 ac to something smaller and then it gets switched to DC with some diodes.

[@ekie85]

On a start up I had blown fuse I’d replaced the fuse and when back to start up and then the transformer fried. Any answer?

[@ninjapangan]

Ty is a great teacher

[@valerianlohrke7373]

I agree as he was my Online Instructor when I went to the National Technical Institute in 2020.

[@potentialhvac6074]

So wire coming off transformer connected to say " 240v terminal stepping down to 24v " don't need to be a thicker gauge because the amps are low???

[@yzhang8629]

When you step down voltage, you step up amps. In theory, if you drive the same high power device, like a blower motor, you need to use much thicker wire if you drive with 24V. However, usually devices on 24V circuit are low power, so you don’t need too many amps

[@Asanta27]

Ty is amazing! Please do more videos with him. He is the reason I am in the industry

[@jolyonwelsh9834]

There are step up transformers on oil burners.

[@sermore77]

Thanks great videos

[@georgetsetsakos6088]

LEGEND

[@michaelstaley9979]

Great video. You can tell he enjoys teaching people about electricity.

[@jimnolan8207]

I understand that high amperage is what is dangerous with electricity so why is it safe to touch the low voltage side of the transformer even though amperage is higher.

[@joehead1294]

Not really safe to 'handle' electricity. Your skin has resistance to electrical conduction and how bad you can get shocked. The higher the potential the more dangerous it is. If you work with electricity you will get shocked someday. You hope it doesn't make it your last day.

[@moonlightacmaintenance3232]

I’ve had a few transformers with resettable breakers trip. All so far have been do to the control boards on trane units. My question is is it primarily the low voltage side of transformers that trip those type transformers?

[@Asanta27]

Only the low. It's not connected to high side

[@moonlightacmaintenance3232]

@@Asanta27 thx. I’m pretty new at this and ran into it a few times already. It would help speed up the trouble shooting process with that info. 👍🏼

Because it was months ago in a school that required it Stay focused
