An autotransformer is no different than a regular transformer. It has "effectively" two windings, a primary and a secondary. Its just that one end of the primary is connected to one end of the secondary. It can also be said that it has only one winding, and that there is a tap someplace in that winding, but the end result is the same. Depending on how it is connected, it can step up or step down the voltage. Some autotransformers have multiple taps. Some, called variacs, have a sliding contact that allows relatively fine control of the output. The up side of an autotransformer is that it can be easier to build. The downside is that it does not provide electrical isolation between primary and secondary, nor can it filter harmonics as well as a dual winding transformer.

An autotransformer (sometimes called autoformer)[1] is an electrical transformer with only one winding. The winding has at least three electrical connection points called taps. The voltage source and the load are each connected to two taps. One tap at the end of the winding is a common connection to both circuits (source and load). Each tap corresponds to a different source or load voltage. In an autotransformer a portion of the same winding acts as part of both the primary and secondary winding. Operation he ratio of secondary to primary voltages is equal to the ratio of the number of turns of the winding they connect to. For example, connecting at the middle and bottom of the autotransformer will halve the voltage. Depending on the application, that portion of the winding used solely in the higher-voltage (lower current) portion may be wound with wire of a smaller gauge, though the entire winding is directly connected.

The working principle of any firearm is that burning gunpowder produces rapidly expanding gasses. Those expanding gasses push the bullet out of the barrel at high speed.
The Lucifer Principle was created in 1995-01.
What is the working principle of venturimeter?
A working principle is a regulation or rule that is used so that work can be done. This is a general phrase that can be used in any circumstance from the working principle of a motor, to the working principle of a solar cells.

An autotransformer is a transformer where the primary and secondary are a single winding.
A principle is a way of working or ethical standards.
Older ballasts with an iron core are basically an autotransformer. They transform voltage to a higher voltage with a single winding. Electronic transformers increase voltage with capacitors and diodes.
