Answer / kuldeep saini
No, Transformer is not a active device,
DIODE & Transistor & SCR are active device.
REsistance, capacitor, Inductor are passive devices.

Answer / ishant jain
In a transformer the input power and output power are the
same....! i.e, V1xI1 = V2xI2,thus you get V1/V2 =I2/I1....
this is transformer ration...! By the way an Active element
is the one that produces a Voltage or Current.... i.e a
potential source or current source ,battery etc..!
Transformer doesn't produce any power voltage or current...!
hence its not an active component in a circuit...!

Answer / saileela.v
Transformer is a passive device because, its have its own
number of windings i.e, which are constant. So, generated
power is constant which cannot vary.
Diode, Transistor---- Active components.
Resistor, Capacitor---Passive components.

Answer / hariohm kumar
Transformer is a passive device..Active device is that which
has the ability to electrically control(control AC using DC)
flow of electrons.
But transformer has not such type of ability.
Example:-Active-Transistor,SCR,TRIACs etc.
Passive-Resistors,capacitors,inductors,transformers,Diodes etc.

Answer / mahadev
transformer is an active device because it is not gain and directionality .this device not provide variable power of its output it provide constant power because it's primary and secondary winding is fixed.

Answer / somu
ya transformer is passive devise,DIODE & Transistor & SCR
are active device.
REsistance, capacitor, Inductor are passive devices.

Answer / guna priya
transformer is not a active device since it does not
require asource of energy for its operation.so it is a
passive device .diodes,transistors are active devices and
rasistors,inductances,capacitors are passive devices
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 3 No |
Active elements:Elements those deliver power or energy to
other devices
ex are voltage and current sources
Passive elements:Elements those receive the power or energy
from active elements
ex are resistance ,inductance,capacitence
