POWER TRANSFORMER PRIMARY WINDING FUSE ARRANGEMENT

摘要

A power supply for use with different AC line voltages, which includes a power transformer having a plurality of separate primary windings and a corresponding plurality of fuses connected thereto. The primary windings are connected to each other in several different ways to change the turns ratio of the power transformer depending upon the value of the voltage supplied thereto. Thus, a predetermined voltage is produced in the secondary winding of the transformer irrespective of the value of the supplied AC line voltage and the current flowing through each of the fuses is held substantially constant, during normal operating conditions, regardless of the manner in which the separate primary windings are connected.
