Unreferenced date December 2009 In circuit analysis, the dot convention is a Convention norm convention used to denote the Polarity physics polarity of two mutual inductance mutually inductive components, such as windings on a transformer . The polarity of the voltage across each inductor with respect to the dotted terminals is the same, as shown in the figure below. This assumes an ideal transformer with no leakage inductance , where the voltages across each winding are always proportional. When the current increases in the direction from the dot to the inductor, then positive voltage is induced at the dots of all the coupled inductors including the original inductor due to self inductance . Alternatively, when current increases in the direction from the inductor to the dot or, equivalently, decreases from the dot to the inductor , negative voltage is induced at the dots. If two mutually coupled inductors are in series, the dot convention can be used in the same manner as in case of transformers. Image Mutual inductance.PNG Sinusoidal AC For sinusoidal AC such as the mains, the convention can be thought of in either of the following ways The Electric current current going into one dot either dot tries to come out the other dot. Into meaning from the dot toward the inductor , and conversely out meaning from the inductor toward the dot. Current going into a dotted terminal of the inductor induces a positive voltage at the other dot. Conversely, current leaving a dotted terminal induces a negative voltage at the other dot.
