There are two types of Transformers:-
1. Step-up transformer & 2. Step-down transformer.
A transformer used to increase the voltage is called Step-up transformer.
A transformer used to decrease the voltage is called Step-down transformer.
Uses of step-up transformer:-
in power supply stations, in picture tubes of TV, computer monitors, halogen lights, etc.
Uses of step-down transformer:-
in supply of electricity to homes, in the power supply to the low voltage devices like radio, music systems which are run by AC mains.

How to put transformer in a sentence?
A transformer is used to transfer electricity from one circuit to another.
Why cant a 18V battery be used as the input of a transformer?
The transformer needs AC at its input. The battery provides DC.
What is an electric transformer box?
A transformer is an electrical device that takes electricity of one voltage and changes it into another voltage. You'll see transformers at the top of utility poles and even changing the voltage in a toy train set.
How much radiation does a computer transformer give off?
none. They are safe.
What types of microscope do scientist use?
compound and light microscopes are used in some labs compound uses a mirror to reflect and a light gives a light source to it
Advandage and disadvandage of berry transformer?

Can you sub a 240 volt 1.5 amp transformer in place of a 240 volt 3 amp transformer?
If the load you are connecting to the transformer uses 1.5 amps or less, yes.
How do you test chopper transformer?
A chopper transformer is a kind of transformer used in an switching power supply.The primary input voltage of it is a Direct current (D.C) unlike any other ordinary step down transformer which uses an Alternating Current (A.C).Chopper transformer uses a switching transistor to produce a secondary voltage..
What equipment uses Nlb200050w1a ac adapter?
Transformer Power Supply
What are possible uses of a single phase 30VA transformer?
To continuously supply a load of up to 30-V.A at the rated secondary voltage of the transformer.
What are at least 2 types of electrical transformers in science?
A variety of electrical transformers are produced for a variety of purposes. All of the types use the same principle discovered by Michael Faraday, and employ many of the same parts. The various types include. Audio transformers, Instrument transformers, Pulse transformers, Power transformers, RF transformers. .
Uses of transformer?
transformers are used to step up or step down the voltages
How does a welding transformer work?
A welding transformer uses the alternating current supplied to the welding shop at a high voltage to produce the low voltage welding power
How many gallons of oil in a 2500 kva 12470 480 volt transformer?
Oil is used to cool the transformer. There is no telling what the transformer in question uses without knowing the specific part number and looking up the specification.
Does 110 volts cost more if uses stepdown trasformer?
If you have to pay for the stepdown transformer, yes. If that is provided free, there is a small loss of energy in the transformer, maybe about 5%, and it depends on whether the meter is installed before or after the transformer.
