Transformers rated 1 KVA and larger single phase,3 KVA and larger three phase can be reverse connected without any adverse effects or loss in KVA capacity. The reason for this limitation in KVA size is, the turns ratio is the same as the voltage ratio. On transformers rated below 1 KVA single phase, there is a turns ratio compensation on the low voltage winding. This means the low voltage winding has a greater voltage than the name plate voltage indicates at no load. Terminals on a single wound transformer, primary side are labeled H1,and H2 and on the secondary side X1 and X2. Just reverse the input voltage to the X1 and X2 terminals and the take the load off of the H1 and H2 side.
As transformers do not work with DC., the answer is a voltage divider network (step down) or a voltage multiplier network (step up).
the difference between a step up transformer and a step down transformer is that, in a tsep up transformer, the voltage secondary is greater than the primary side but in a step down transformer, the voltage secondary is lesser than the primary side
A transformer used to step up or down the value of voltage.
Frequency does not change when you use a step-up or step-down transformer. Only current and voltage is changed.
'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.
A step-up transformer increases voltage, while a step-down transformer decreases voltage.
A transformer is used to step up or step down a Voltage supply.
A step-up transformer increases voltage, while a step-down transformer decreases voltage.
Sure. The description only depends on which side gets the excitation and which side provides the output. Excite the shorter winding and you have a step-up. Excite the longer winding and you have a step-down.
Transformer function is either to step-up or down the voltage. There is nothing like an ordinary transformer.

the main function of transformer is to change the magnitude of Voltage. difference between step up and step down is step up will change the input voltage into a larger magnitude of output while step down is vice versa
A step-down transformer reduces the voltage from a higher level to a lower level, while a step-up transformer increases the voltage from a lower level to a higher level.
No. You can not step up power with a transformer. You can step up voltage, while stepping down current, or you can step up current, while stepping down voltage, but you cannot step up (or down) power.
You can go to ebay.com. Then sign up for an account and search for "step down transformer."
If the primary voltage (input) is less than the secondary (output) then it is a step-up. If the input is greater than the output then it is a step-down transformer.
