The eternal struggle between Hollywood fantasy and engineering reality! While pop culture has convinced us that transformers are giant alien robots ready to save Earth (or destroy it, depending on which side they're on), electrical engineers are sitting there like "Actually, it's just a device that transfers electrical energy between circuits using electromagnetic induction." The diagram shows the decidedly less cinematic but infinitely more practical reality: a core with primary and secondary windings that manipulate voltage through magnetic flux. No explosions, no dramatic transformations, just elegant physics doing its thing. Michael Bay would be so disappointed.
