To do its magic on the high voltage and change it to low voltage the electrical transformer uses two rather intriguing and important phenomena. Firstly whenever an electric current flows, there is magnetism around it. Secondly whenever a magnetic field changes (by moving or by changing strength) a voltage is made. If there's a wire close by when this happens then a current will flow in the wire as the magnetism changes.
The electrical transformer takes in high voltage electricity and lets it run through lots of coils wound around an iron core. Because the current is alternating the magnetism in the core is also alternating. Also round the core is an output wire with less coils. The changing magnetism generates a current in the wire and less coils means less voltage. So the voltage is 'stepped-down'.
Answer#1...Wire produces a magnetic field when current is passed through it. If you wrap the wire around something (a core) to make a coil, it concentrates that field. The core isn't actually necessary but it helps concentrate the field and make the transformer more efficient.#2...If you pass a magnetic field through a wire, it produces electron flow.
If you make a coil with 100 wraps and pass current through it, it will produce the magnetic field. If you have another coil close enough to be IN that magnetic field, and it has 10 turns, you will get about 1/10 the voltage from the second coil that you put into the first one.
It gets a lot more complicated than that with formulas and all kinds of mathematics, but that is the basics of a "step down" transformer.
AnswerWhen an electron travels through a conductor it generates "ripples" in a fluid like medium (EMF) those ripples induce the electrons in conductors in close proximity to move(=current). In a transformer electrons in the input or primary side travel around the core perpendicularly causing the electrons in the core to spin(the core resembles a doughnut like shape) the secondary coil gets induced by the motion of electrons in the core. The a out put voltage is determine by the turns ration of the primary to secondary coils. In the mechanical world an electrical transformer is like a car transmission, converting torque (current) into speed(voltage) or vies versa. Total input power= Total output power.No. Transformers are used in circuits with Alternating Current. Transformers work on the principle of a "changing" magnetic field inducing a current in a conductor, and you don't get that "changing" field with Direct Current.

There are more than one electrical components that work through induction. Two examples are motors and transformers.
No. Nobody can defecate transformers, whether you mean electrical transformers or the cartoon series.
The transmission of electrical energy requires very high voltages (for a given load, the higher the supply voltage, the lower the load current). To increase/reduce these voltages, you need transformers. Transformers are AC machines; they do not work with DC.
Transformers are used in AC circuits and won't work for DC. A frequency of 60Hz is popular in the USA.

Square D is a brand of electrical components. In an electrical application, you might see Square D transformers, or perhaps General Electric, or another brand.
It is a step down transformer which is used to supply the electrical power to the station transformers and the colony transformers
Doorbell transformers are typically located near the main electrical panel or in the attic of a house.

Transformers are an important part in the electrical distribution network. They step up or step down electricity.
A transformer is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another by means of a varying magnetic field. see the Related Link below for a whole bunch of info on Transformers and explanations on how they work. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer
Fuses and breakers are the main forms of protection on generators transformers and most other electrical equipment.
