I can understand how a step down transformer works but how does a step up transformer work?

Hi Petee


Excactly the same. It's turns ratio that counts. Connect AC voltage to a winding with 100 turns and have a second winding with 200 turns will cause voltage out to double.

You don't get something for nothing. Voltage would double but available current would only be half.
