What Does Shielding in a Transformer Do?

We recommend using a shielded Transformers for power conversion and distribution type applications, which include loads that are sensitive to high frequency noise. Typical loads are PLC controlled systerms, computers, and microprocessors.

In most power conversion applications without highly sensitive loads a unshielded transformers is typical.  Examples using unshielded transformers would be  appliances, lighting, and motorized machines.

In future blogs, we will discuss types of shields, advantages/disadvantages.
