What is an Induction Coil?
An induction coil is a type of electrical transformer that uses a low-voltage DC supply to produce high-voltage pulses. The coil is made up of two coils made up of insulating copper wire wound around a common iron core. The first coil is small, usually made up of tens or hundreds of turns of coarse wire. This is known as the primary winding. The second coil, known as the secondary winding, is made up of thousands of turns of fine wire. The coil works by sending a small electric current through the primary coil. This creates a magnetic field. Since both primary and secondary windings are wrapped around a common iron core, the primary winding is coupled with the secondary winding. When the voltage going into the primary is suddenly interrupted or stopped, the magnetic field collapses quickly. The sudden collapse of the magnetic field creates a high voltage pulse to be developed across the terminals connected to the secondary windings, by a process known as electromagnetic induction. Sinc
