Hi,
An isolation transformer is used in order to "safely" separate one part of an electric circuit from the mains. (description in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation_transformer" )
Still I have problems grasping the important concept of such a transformer. I have spent some time googling, but I cannot find an answer as to why such a transformer makes the secondary side SAFER with respect to electrical shocks.
Does anyone want to share their insights?
regards
