Transformer Output

Cards (4)

    • The coil with the most turns will have the higher voltage.
  • STEP-DOWN transformer
    • Secondary coil will have lower number of turns than the primary coil - the output voltage is lower than the input (less voltage produce, more current flowing in secondary coil).
  • STEP-UP transformer
    • Secondary coil will have more number of turns than the primary coil - the output voltage is higher than the input voltage (more voltage, less current flowing in secondary coil).
  • Equation:
    • V1 / V2 = N1 / N2
    • primary voltage / secondary voltage = number of turns on primary / number of turns on secondary
