The voltage ratio is the same as the turns ratio for an ideal transformer, and most Transformers are close to being ideal. So use the following equation:
Vs/Vp = Ns/Np

∙ 12y agoVS/VP=NS/NP where Vs=Voltage in secondary coil,Vp=primary voltage
Ns=Number of turns in secondary coil
Np=Primary coil turns

What type of voltage is passed trough a transformer?
Voltage doesn't 'pass through' anything! Voltage is another word for 'potential difference', and is measured between two points in a circuit. For a transformer to work, it's necessary to apply an a.c. voltage across the transformer's primary terminals.
How does a step down transformer work?
well the working of the step doen transformer depends on the number of turns on the secondary side of the transformer, now in the case of a step down transformer, the number of turns in the secondary windings are less as compared to the number of turns at the primary side/winding, so the amount of flux which links the secondary side of the transformer is also less resulting in the production of less amount of emf at the secondary side. hence the status of the voltage is decreased as compared to the voltage of the primary side.
How does a step-down transformer work?

What is the current of a 45 kva transformer?
Presumably, you are asking what is the rated secondary current for a 45 kV.A (not 'kva') transformer? The answer depends on its rated secondary voltage. To obtain the rated secondary current, you divide the (apparent) power rating by its secondary rated voltage.
How do you calculate MVA rating of power transformer?
The product of the secondary rated current and the secondary rated voltage will give you the rated V.A of the transformer.

What are the output voltage and current of a transformer determined by?
The secondary (output) voltage is determined by the primary voltage and the turns ratio of the transformer. The secondary current is determined by the secondary voltage and the load resistance.
What is the voltage that is provided by the transformer is called the?
Secondary voltage.
How does a transformer work you mean how does it reduce current and increase the voltage you have tried the math this doesnt make any sense?
A transformer has a primary (Where the AC supply voltage is applied); and a secondary where a voltage is induced by a fluctuating magnetic field in the iron core of the transformer. The secondary voltage depends on the ratio of windings between the primary and secondary. Since the transformer can't manufacture power the product of the voltage and current at the primary exceeds that in the secondary. So if the transformer steps up the voltage in the secondary, the maximum current in the secondary must decrease. Similarly if the voltage is stepped down the maximum current increases in the secondary. There are always losses in this process so the power in is always somewhat less than power out.
How do you calculate transformer voltage ratio test?
Secondary voltage / primary voltage
Can infinite voltage be given at transformer primary?
no, infinite voltage can't be given to the primary of the transformer....if the secondary is connected to the load, then over voltage will damage the load, if secondary is open circuited, then the infinite voltage can breakdown the transformer internal insulation,
If a transformer has 20 primary windings and 100 secondary windings and the secondary voltage is 25 what is the primary voltage?
Transformer step-up/step-down voltage is turns-ratio, so if a transformer has 20 primary windings and 100 secondary windings (a turns-ratio of 1 to 5) and the secondary voltage is 25, then is the primary voltage is 5.
How can find the primary turns of the transformer knowing the primary voltage of the transformer?
The ratio of the primary voltage to the secondary voltage is proportional to the ratio of windings. So if the primary voltage is 120 volts and the secondary is 240 volts there are twice as many turns in the secondary.AnswerAs the previous answer says, you can work out the turns ratio of a transformer, but knowing the primary and secondary voltages will not help you determine how many turns are on each winding.
What do we call the voltage that is provided by a transformer?
This is the transformed voltage, but it might also be identified as the secondary voltage as it is taken from the secondary winding.
Is there more current in the primary or secondary winding of a transformer?
The terms, 'primary' and 'secondary', describe how a transformer is connected and his nothing to do with which is the lower- and higher-voltage winding.The primary winding is the winding connected to the supply, while the secondary winding is the winding connected to the load. So, for astep-up transformer, the secondary winding is the higher voltage winding, whereas for a step-down transformer, the secondary winding is the lower voltage winding.For a loaded transformer, i.e. a transformer whose secondary is supplying a load, the higher-voltage winding carries the smaller current, while the lower-voltage winding carries the higher current.
What happens to the current as the voltage is increased by the step up transformer?
Compare a transformer to a balancing act. Both side need to remain equal.The primary side of the transformer is the supply side and the load is connected to the secondary side of the transformer.The load governs the current of the secondary side of the transformer and the voltage of the secondary side must match the voltage that the load required to operate.The ratio of the transformer will determine what the voltage of the secondary side is as compared to the voltage that has to be applied to the primary.The current of a step up transformer will be higher on the primary side that that of the secondary.Apply voltage and current to this concept and you will see that the transformer will remain balanced.The size of the transformer is always calculated from the secondary side of the transformer and the value is written in VA or KVA where V = voltage and A = amperage. Power factor is also taken into consideration when calculating the size of the transformer to be used.
What is approximate turns ratio of the centre-tapped transformer used?
It depends on the voltage ratio of the transformer. If you know the primary and secondary voltages, then you can work it out for yourself.
