Tariffs on some metals and threats of additional tariffs ... That’s increased to hundreds of thousands of volts using a step-up transformer. The increase in voltage helps electricity travel ...

This is when: the potential difference in the primary (input) coil is in volts (V) the potential difference in the secondary (output) coil is in volts (V) In a step-up transformer, the potential ...

before electrical power leaves a power station – it is transferred at high voltages by using 'step-up' transformers to increase the voltage to around 275,000 V before electrical power enters ...
