The appliance can be plugged into either tapping to obtain the desired voltage.<\/p>\n<p>Tappings are also used in transformers to provide a variable output voltage. This is done by providing a number of tappings on the secondary winding that are connected to a switch. The switch can be used to select the desired output voltage.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a transformer that is used to power a variable speed motor may have six tappings on the secondary winding, each of which provides a different output voltage. The motor speed can be changed by selecting the desired output voltage.<\/p>\n<p>Tappings are an important feature of transformers that allow them to be used in a variety of applications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join Our Telegram Channel Subscribe on
