A step up transformer is used to increase the voltage of the electrical energy transmitted over long distances through power transmission lines. This is because transmitting high voltage over long distances reduces energy losses due to resistance in the transmission lines. The step-up transformer is placed at the power station to step up the voltage from the generator before it is transmitted through the power lines. On the other hand, a step down transformer is used to decrease the voltage of the electrical...
