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.

Auxiliary transformer- current transformer The current transformer is working based on two theories. 1.Ampheres law. 2.Faradays law. Amp.law- whenever a current flows through the conductor it will produce magnetic flux around the conductor. based on above principle- current flows through the primary will induce a magnetic flux in the CT core. Faraday law- whenever a conductor cuts the magnetic flux or magnetic flux cuts the conductor will induce a emf across the conductor based on above principle- the magnetic flux in the core will cuts the windings. so emf is induced across the secondary terminals . whenever the secondary terminals connected with burden will make a closed path and current flows through the secondary to burden.
A current transformer (or CT) is constructed in a specific way so as to step down the current in a high power circuit for measuring or protective relaying purposes. Typically, it will have a toroidal-shaped iron core with the secondary windings wrapped around it. the primary "winding" is usually the conductor of the main power system passing directly through the hole in the center of the CT. As a result of this construction, if the secondary windings are left open, a very large flux can develop, resulting in damage to the CT and possibly even the other equipment it is attached to. As such, if the CT is not going to be used, its secondary windings need to be shorted.
Its secondary must never be open circuited. If its burden is to be removed, then the secondary must be short circuited first, and removed only after the burden is replaced.
Transformer is a static electrical device used to step up or step down the voltage with the help of primary and secondary windings.
An induction motor works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When an alternating current flows through the stator windings, it creates a rotating magnetic field. This magnetic field induces a current in the rotor windings, causing it to rotate and drive the attached load.
An AC current in one coil of the transformer, causes a changing magnetic field around it. The changing magnetic field induces an AC voltage in the second winding. The strength of the magnetic field is intesified by a soft iron core. The output of the secondary coil is dependent on the number of windings. More windings will give a higher voltage, than the primary input voltage and vice versa.
A transformer has a rating that is usually expressed in KVA. This is approximately a wattage rating. It is not dangerous but it can be the cause of some concern. An appliance has a set current that is draws. This current times the voltage is the appliance's wattage. The same goes for the transformer. It only has a certain capacity to supply a specific current that is governed by its KVA (watts). Driving the transformer beyond its rated capacity tends to heat the transformer beyond its working temperature. If left in this over current draw the transformer's windings insulation will break down and the windings will short circuit. This is usually the end of a working transformer. So short answer, more watts (amps) from appliance equals burned out transformer.

Because it is only possible to have a voltage in the secondary winding when the current in the primary is changing. This is why only alternating current can be used for transformers.
A welding transformer operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction to convert high voltage, low current electricity from the power supply into low voltage, high current electricity suitable for welding. It consists of primary and secondary windings wrapped around a magnetic core. When alternating current (AC) flows through the primary winding, it creates a magnetic field that induces a current in the secondary winding, stepping down the voltage and stepping up the current. This low-voltage, high-current output is then used to create the necessary heat for welding metal parts together.

just try using the primary and secondary coils just as like the working of step up transformer
