A 40 VA transformer with 120 V primary and 20 V secondary will have a limiting secondary current of ______________________________ A.

False

A normally closed (NC) contact on a relay closes when the coil is energized.

False

A step-up transformer produces a higher primary voltage than the secondary voltage.

laminated

A(n) ______________________________ core is made of thin iron sheets that are riveted or glued together.

Winding

Coil of wire used in a transformer

True

Contactors are heavy-duty devices.

Coil

Current-carrying wire designed to produce an effective magnetic field

False

Direct current supplied to an electromagnet causes the magnetic poles to alternate location.

Relay

Electrically operated switch controlled by an external signal

False

Excessive supply voltage to the relay and contactor coils is a common cause of chattering.

Resistive load

Heating element commonly used for refrigeration evaporator defrost

False

Holding current is drawn by a solenoid coil when it is first energized.

3 V

If the turns ratio in a transformer is 3:1, and the voltage in the primary coil is 9 V, the voltage in the secondary coil will be ____.

False

Inductive reactance occurs when direct current is applied to coils.

Inductive load

Load made of coils of wire and powered by alternating current

Solenoid

Mainly used in HVACR to open or close a valve to control fluid flow

Armature

Movable plate that may be hinged or slide along a fixed track in an electromagnetic device

True

The back emf in a dc-powered coil can be greater than the supplied emf.

solenoid valves

The configurations shown in this diagram are typically used for ____.

True

The more turns of wire around the core of an electromagnet, the stronger the magnetic field will be.

apparent power

The volt-ampere rating is the ____ rating of a transformer.

Solenoid Parts

This image provides an exploded view of a(n) ______________________________.

resistor

To prevent back emf from arcing in a dc-powered coil, a(n) ______________________________ can be added in parallel to the coil.

False

Transformers work with direct current.

Transformer

Uses coils of wire to produce magnetic fields and transfer ac from one coil to another

The coil is shorted and should not be powered up.

What does it mean if you check a solenoid coil with an ohmmeter and it reads zero?

Providing a counterforce
