Working principle
Sicces 3NE1820-0 is an electromagnetic rectifier that performs the functions of voltage conversion and stabilization to ensure a stable power supply for production systems. The main working principle corresponds to the law of electromagnetic induction, which establishes a relationship between the magnetic field and electric current. The formula that describes this process has the form:
$$ U = \frac{N \cdot \Delta \Phi}{\Delta t} $$
where $ U $ — electromotive force, $ N $ — number of turns, $ \Delta \Phi $ — change in magnetic flux, $ \Delta t $ — time of change.
