Primary and Secondary Coil Apparatus
Product Code : JA-ELA-5403
The Primary and Secondary Coil Apparatus (SKU JA-ELA-5403) is made by JaincoLab to demonstrate induced current. The primary coil is insulated copper wire wound on a cylinder and fitted with terminals; the secondary coil is fine insulated copper wire wound on a cylinder into which the primary fits. A soft iron core for the primary coil is included, so the electromagnetic effect can also be demonstrated.
Specifications
The apparatus consists of two wound coils and a soft iron core; number of turns, wire gauge and coil dimensions are not stated and are confirmed on the quotation.

- Effect of the soft iron core on the induced current
- Mutual induction and the principle of the transformer
- Electromagnetism lessons in senior secondary physics
Scope of supply and ordering
One primary coil, one secondary coil and the soft iron core make up each apparatus; a galvanometer, cell or power supply and leads are separate, and quantity, packing and lead time are on the quotation.
Frequently asked questions
Is the soft iron core included?
Yes. A soft iron core for inserting in the primary coil is included.
How are the two coils used together?
The primary coil fits inside the secondary coil, so a change of current in the primary induces a current in the secondary.
What is the secondary coil wound with?
Fine insulated copper wire on a cylinder.
