Is ct step up or step down?

'CT' is used to designate current transformers, and 'PT' is used to designate potential transformers. A current transformer provides a ratio of primary current to the secondary. A potential transformer provides a ratio of primary voltage to the secondary. A power transformer (step up or step down) resembles a PT more than a CT.

What are the types of and uses for a transformer?

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.
