In principle you can but in practice it is not done. A 220 v supply might have to provide (let's say) 200 watts of power for a TV. That would mean that the current drawn at 1.5 volts would have to be at least 140 amps, and that kind of power is not normally available.

Where is a step up transformer used in the home?

An example would be if you had a oil furnace, the ignition system would be a step up transformer. The step up 120 volt to 15000 volt transformer is used to ignite the fuel that comes out of the nozzle under high pressure to make the fuel burn.

How do you calculate the current in a transformer?

By the volt metre.


How do you calculate current capacity of transformer?

The secondary winding's current rating is the rated apparent power of the transformer (expressed in volt amperes) divided by its voltage rating (expressed in volts). This applies to both step down, and step up, transformers.


Is it safe to have a 250 voltage device in a 110 volt current?

No. You will need a transformer to step up the voltage and you will possibly need to convert the plug.


How do you convert 115 volt into 230 volt?

The only way to do that is with a transformer. They make inline transformers that convert 230 to 115 and they simply plug in inline.


What is the electrical current in electrical transformations?

In the case of a transformer the simplest way to explain current is that it will be inversely proportionate to the voltage. For example: If you have a transformer that transforms 5000 volts down to 2500 volts you have a 2:1 ratio. The current ratio will then be 1:2. If you had 200 Amps on the 5000 volt side you will have 400 Amps on the 2500 volt side. Comment There is a misconception that a transformer will 'step up' or 'step down' the primary current. In fact, the secondary current is determined by the secondary voltage and the impedance of the load, NOT by the primary current. The secondary current then determines the primary current by a factor equivalent to the reciprocal of the turns ratio.
