Alright gotta do this before I head out, transformers I mostly know them to do one thing and that’s changing voltage. You either have step up or what I’ve learned them for mostly in HVAC as step down as in changing 240 volts to 24 volts. There’s not much you really do to fix them if they aren’t working just make sure the wires coming in are actually secured on it and the lines out also. If it ain’t working you replace it with an OEM and move on but I done some digging into how they work. As shown in the image you got windings shown primary and secondary and how the voltage change depend on the ratio of windings you got and the voltage coming in. Something something Faradays of induction and you got EMF, look I’m not gonna pretend I fully understand it all yet but I’m trying. I know this component is real important since while the main things in HVAC require 240 volts a lot of safe guards and other components need just 24 volt to get working such as contactors and switches to get the power through. Anyway keep looking out on this mega as I add more through out the week as I try to educate myself on it by reading.

    current events, transphobia

    I feel like I’m going fucking crazy. So the 4th circuit just put out a really scary ruling saying out right care bans for adults are a-okay. Even further then what republicans wanted. The NHS in the UK is doing a report into if adult care is going to stay or not (after their report taking care away from kids). What the fuck is happening??!!!

    If you didn’t see that news, it’s because no one here cared. Both threads sitting at 20~ votes. One comment each. Even people here don’t give a fuck, is this not huge news?? I feel like I’m going crazy, I’m not over reacting am I?? Like these are both big, scary, crazy steps towards just banning us completely???

      The legal stuff changes too much all the time for me to make sense of or track any of it. I know I should keep up, but there are so many things I should think about, plan for, keep up with while my brain barely works. These are such difficult and confusing times I don’t know ,

      What the fuck is happening??!!!

      The Anti-Christ is descending upon earth and the empire is trying to engineer the apocalypse. I guess.

      is this not huge news?? I feel like I’m going crazy, I’m not over reacting am I?? Like these are both big, scary, crazy steps towards just banning us completely???

      It is huge news, but probably drowned out in terms of attention by the war. You are not overreacting. On other forums where this news was discussed it blew up.

        It is huge news, but probably drowned out in terms of attention by the war.

        Porn addicts getting their data leaked got 80 votes. An old study about crowd movement (fascinating stuff, to be sure) got 60. A crusty ass my son vs your son meme got 60. A new emoji submission got 50. A few birds got 40. There are tons of posts that got more attention that aren’t about the war. People here don’t care.

        I know I’m not overreacting I just wanted to bitch about this site in general.
