A step-up transformer is a type of transformer that increases the voltage level of an alternating current (AC) electrical signal.
1. Voltage Increase: Steps up the voltage level.
2. Current Decrease: Decreases the current level.
3. Turns Ratio: The ratio of primary to secondary turns
determines the voltage increase.
1. Power Transmission: Used in power transmission systems to
step up voltage for efficient transmission.
2. Industrial Applications: Used in industrial settings for
high-voltage applications.
3. Power Generation: Used in power generation systems to step up voltage for transmission.
1. Efficient Transmission: Enables efficient transmission of power over long distances.
2. Reduced Losses: Reduces energy losses during transmission.
3. Increased Capacity: Allows for increased power transmission capacity.
