"Electric" Transformers are used in the electric power system for many things. I wonder if you mean "auto" transformer. Transformers are used to step up/down voltage and currents, to provide a ground reference, to inject signals onto power lines, to sample high voltages and currents, etc.

Which types of relay is use in power transformer?

A 'power transformer' is a category of transformer used within electricity transmission and primary distribution systems. Relays are widely used with power transformers to provide various types of protection that will act to disconnect the transformer in the event of a fault. Examples of these relays include Buchholz relays, earth-fault relays, and differential relays. Relays are also used to operate a power transformer's automatic tap-changing mechanism in order to compensate for changes in load.


What is the name of a step-up which increases the voltage of electric energy that is generated at a power?

The name of the step-up device which increases the voltage of electric energy generated at a power plant is called a transformer. Transformers are used in electricity distribution systems to increase the voltage for efficient long-distance transmission before stepping it down again for use in homes and businesses.

Can a a electric substation in a city use transformers to increase the power output?

No! A transformer changes voltage levels, not power levels. In fact, the output power of a transformer is actually a little lower than its input power, due to the efficiency of a transformer.
