Transformers consist of only a single core with two different winding's; primary and secondary winding's. To avoid maximum losses in the coils of the transformer, it is manufactured with only a single core.

Transformer is the device which has only magnetic links between the primary and secondary there is no such term like electrical coupling in any type of transformer.

Suppose the transformer getting 2 (or) 3 cores, the cost of individual cores & cost of insulation is more.

That's why single core is used on the transformer.

Transformers core are never coupled electrically. if it will be done then it will just act as a simple conductor. then the flux cannt be created.

Transformers are coupled magnetically only. I think there is no term like electrical coupling. If it exist then its beyond of my understanding.

A transformer consists of two or more cores. It is correct but electrically coupled is wrong because flux cannot be created without magnetism.

Its false beacuse transformer is not work like a electrical link, and the winding is only connected trought megnetic coupling.

Transformer is a device which is based on inductance of flux linkage ie. , magnetic coupling but not by electric coupling.

Here, the cores of a transformer electrically coupled is wrong. Because flux cannot be created without magnetic force.
