Inthis circuit is inserted the primary winding of a small step-up transformer or inductioncoil. The secondarywinding of this trans-former is a coil of finewire of many turns,which transmits throughthe line and receivessmaller currents at ahigher voltage. Figure 376 shows the use of such a transformerIc in a local battery set. The battery is connected in serieswith the transmitter and the primary winding; the secondaryis connected in series with the line and receiver. Figure 377shows very clearly the construction of the telephone coil. Thefunction of the induction coil is to convert the local variations of. TransmitterFig. 376.
