Answer
An isolation transformer does not have a direct electrical path from the power input side to the
power output side. The term is also used to define how much electrical isolation exists
between the input and output windings. For example when using line-voltage inputtransformers to power low voltage device handled by humans, a high degree of isolation is
required for safety.
Isolated transformers often use separate bobbins for the primary and secondary coil windings,
but usually the windings are just wound on top of each other with insulation in between.There
is usually an electrostatic shield between windings which is tied to transformer case.
Non-Isolated transformers are becoming rare. A common example is the "Variac" which is a
non-isolated variable
transformer. Usually the term "auto-
transformer" is used to describe
non-isolated transformers. They are rarely found in consumer products.
Although any transformer with a separate primary and secondary winding is an isolation transformer to some extent,
The term is usually used to denote a special-purpose transformer built just for that use. It is tested and rated to
withstand a very high voltage difference, called the withstand voltage, so that even if thousands of volts are applied tothe primary, it will not leak through to the protected side. These transformers are used in the medical industry, to
protect patients hooked up to monitoring instruments that are powered by utility mains, as well as other uses.
