A transformer is a device that changes (transforms) and alternating potential difference (voltage) from one value to another value be it smaller or greater using the principle of electromagnetic induction.

<a class="h2heading h2" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);" name="Step-up Transformer:">Step-up Transformer:</a> On a step-up transformer there are more turns on the secondary coil than the primary coil. The induced voltage across the secondary coil is greater than the applied voltage across the primary coil or in other words the voltage has been "stepped-up."
