Answer / rohit kumar soni

VARIAC, AUTO TRANSFORMER, DIMMERSTATE ALL DEVICE WHICH CAN
BE USED TO GET VARIABLE AC VOLTAGE AT THE CONDITION OF NO
CHANGE IN INPUT AC VOLTAGE.THIS TYPE OF TRANSFORMER IS
CALLED AUTO TRANSFORMER. IN THIS TRANFORMER THERE IS A COIL
WINDING CONNECTED TO AC INPUT AND ONE OUT PUT CONNECTION IS
COMMAN LINE AND ANOTHER OUTPUT LINE MOVES WITH THE HELP OF
A CORBAN SLIDER ON THE AC INPUT COIL AS SLIDER MOVES WE GET
VARIABLE AC VOLTAGE .

Answer / sheik

one winding input and output

Answer / mahesh ch

all are same........tese are different names.

Answer / s.h.bhopatkar

All products are exactly one and the same. "Dimmerstat" is
originally registered by "AE" the pioneers in this product
in India.All other manufactures have registered this product
in different names,like "Varivolt""Varitrans" etc.
The basic product is a Toroidal Transformer,with a moving
brush to short only 2 turns at atime.The coil is generally
wound for Single phase voltage,generally 230V.3 such coils
are assembled on a common shaft,which can either moved
manually or thro a stepped motor for remote operation

Answer / vinod kumar

Answer / capatin puri

practicaly both are same But we callwith differ names

Answer / chandra sekhar

A transformer, in which only one winding is there is called so, a part of the winding is common to both the primary and secondary circuits, it is called autotransformer/variac/dimmerstat. ["Variac" and "Dimmerstat" are trade names of variable autotransformers. "Dimmerstat" is originally registered by "AE" the pioneers in this product in India.All other manufactures have registered this product in different names,like "Varivolt""Varitrans" etc.]

(Dimmer is: A rheostat that varies the current through an electric light in order to control the level of illumination)

The "auto" (greek for "self") prefix refers to the single coil acting on itself (it doesn.t signify any kind of automatic mechanism).

Answer / bhaskar 222

DIMMER STAT IS A VARIABLE VOTAGE DEVICE BY GIVING TAPPING
CONNECTION TO THE WINDING WE GET THE REQUIRED VOTAGE.THE
STARTING OR ENDING TAKEN AS COMMON
* VARIAC IS A VARIABLE AC VOLTAGE DEVICE
* AUTO TRANSFORMER IS A FIXED INPUT AND OUTPUT TAKEN BY
GIVING TAPPING

Answer / jonesh

Auto transform have single winding on both coil but transformer have two windig on two coil 

Answer / vinod mundayattu

Both are same

When we change the tap position of 10MVA transformer it suddenly tripped with Out of step indication and also with Static differential relay indication, Transformer Bucholz relay indn and Low oil level indication. Before 1 week the same problem occured by changing the tap position. but at that time only oltc bucholz relay activated. After testing the TxR Relay team & PET team cant find any solid reason. The values are ok also. So plz answer wat's the reason for this incident? anybody plz help.
