AC power is electricially, a value that is expressed in watts and voltage is the electromotive force that combined with amps, makes up the formula to find watts. Watts is the product of Amps x Volts. W = amps x volts.
The generated voltage in a power station is AC voltage, not DC. So, it is never converted to AC, because it is already AC.
We deliver power on the power grid as an AC voltage. That's alternating current, and that's what is available in your home.
High Voltage AC.
Power = Current * Voltage * Power FactorAbove expression can further be explore as :1. For DC CircuitsPower = Current * Voltage2. For Single Phase AC CircuitPower = Current * Voltage * Power Factor3. For Three Phase AC CircuitPower = Line Current * Line Voltage * Power Factor
The voltage is 230volts and this is the norm in Europe.
Yes.
Yes. Transformers convert power by stepping up or down voltage. It doesn't matter what tap configuration they have.
The function of any transformer is to change one AC voltage value to another AC voltage value. A step down transformer will transform a higher AC voltage to a lower AC voltage. A step up transformer will transform a lower AC voltage to a higher AC voltage. The transmission of electrical power uses both of these types of transformers. From the generation station the voltage is stepped up to a very high transmission voltage and at the end of the transmission line it is stepped down to a voltage that consumers can utilize.

in ac circuits power,P=VICOS@ @ is the angle between voltage and current. in dc P=VI V is the voltage I is the current. Power (in Watts) is current (A) x voltage (V)
a form of low voltage DC to high voltage AC power conversion circuit.
Reduced voltage levels of AC power that lasts for a period of time is known as a brownout.
