What does a step-up transformer step up?

A step-up transformer steps up the voltage rather than stepping down the voltage like a normal ac wall adapter does. By stepping up the voltage it is not free electricity it allspice takes away from the available amps.e.g.Say you have 12V 1A AC going in to the primary coil of your step up transformer, this would result in a higher voltage and lesser amps like 24V 0.5A AC coming out of the secondary coil.AnswerA step-up transformer steps up voltage, but it DOES NOT 'step down' current! The secondary current is determined by the load, and the primary current is then determined by the value of secondary current.
