Aug 10, 2020 at 17:58 comment added Andy aka If there is a turns ratio significantly different to 1:1 then you would not use the same wire. 100 turns wouldn't be very suitable for mains (230 volts) voltages (probably more like 20 volts at 50 Hz). Sounds like you've invented something not very useful and not worth investing in a nameplate.
Aug 10, 2020 at 17:56 comment added Criticizing Israel not allowed The rating is the voltage that the machine is designed for. How much voltage do you want it to transform? That's the rating. Now you choose the right wire for that voltage.
Aug 10, 2020 at 17:55 comment added The Photon It will depend on things like the kind of insulation used on the wire, and how the primary and secondary windings are physically separated. If you are designing the transformer, you'd start with a desired voltage rating, and then make sure all the components you use and the physical design meet the requirements for that rating.
