2. INTRODUCTION Tesla invented Tesla coil in 1891. Tesla coil is primarily used to produce high voltage and high frequency alternating current electricity. Tesla coils are capable of producing high voltages better than artificial means of producing the same. “It takes the output from a 120vAC to a several kilovolt transformer and driver circuit and steps it up to an extremely high voltage.

5. WORKING PRINCIPAL This coil has the ability to produce output voltages up to several million volts based upon the size of the coil. The Tesla coil works on a principle to achieve a condition called resonance. Here, the primary coil emits huge amounts of current into the secondary coil to drive the secondary circuit with maximum energy . frequency .

6. WORKING The primary coil is connected to the power source and the secondary coil of a transformer is coupled loosely to ensure that it resonates. The capacitor connected in parallel with the transformer circuit acts as a tuning circuit or an LC circuit to generate signals at a specific frequency.

7. APPLICATION Aluminum welding Cars use these coils for the spark plug ignition Created Tesla coil fans, used to generate artificial lighting, sounds like music Tesla coils in Entertainment and Education industry are used as attractions at electronics fairs and science museums High vacuum systems and arc lighters Vacuum system leak detectors

8. ADVANTAGES OF TESLA COIL Allows uniform distribution of voltage throughout the winding coils. Builds up the voltage at a slow pace and hence no damage. Great performance. The use of 3-phase rectifiers for higher powers can offer tremendous load sharing.

9. DISADVANTAGES OF TESLA COIL Tesla coil poses several health hazards due to high voltage radio frequency emission that includes skin burn, damage to the nervous system and heart. Involves high costs in buying large DC smoothing capacitor. Construction of circuit consumes much time as it needs to be perfect to resonate.

10. CONCLUSION Tesla Coil was once a very popular electrical device used in many appliances. However, in the last century slowly but surely usage of Tesla Coil has reduced drastically. The primary usage remains in the laboratory and exhibitions. Few usage of Tesla coil remains in aerospace industry and ball lighting experiment. Modified Tesla coils continue to gain its popularity in cathode ray tubes and computer power supplies as solid state tesla .
