Question
The primary coil of a transformed has 800 urns and the secondary coil has 8 turns. It is connected to a 220 V a.c. supply. What will be the output voltage?
Solution
No. of turns in primary coil Np =800
No. of turns in secondary coil Np=8.
Input supply voltage Ep = 220 V.
`E_p/E_s = N_p / N_s`
`E_s = (N_sxx E_p)/N_p = (8 xx 220)/ 800`
`E_s = 2.2 V.`

Long distance power transmissions
The large-scale transmission and distribution of electrical energy over long distances is done with the use of transformers. The voltage output of the generator is stepped up. It is then transmitted over long distances to an area sub-station near the consumers. There the voltage is stepped down. It is further stepped down at distributing sub-stations and utility poles before a power supply of 240 V reaches our homes.
