    What's the difference between a Step up Transformer and a step down transformer? Does it just matter on how you hook up to it? Like if I hook it up in this direction it steps up, but if I hook it up in this direction it steps down.

    • @RG-hx8uc
      @RG-hx8uc Рік тому

      It depends on the conversion ratio. If it is going from 1 to 2 in a 1:2 conversion ratio. It is a step up transformer. For instance, you connect 1 voltage input to the side that has the 1 ratio, you will product 2 voltage output at the other end since the conversion ratio is 1:2. Whenever you increase the voltage by a certain magnitude, it is a step up transformer and vice versa. In short transformer is defined by the ratio between its input and output voltage.

    So wait. In theory, with thin enough wire in an inert gas, couldn't you amplify a TINY voltage into a HUGE one? Genuinely curious if that would even chamge anything or what would happen

  • @MarekKnapek
    @MarekKnapek Рік тому

    Not sure everybody gets the point. Because P=I^2*R then by increasing voltage 10× you decrease current 10× and decrease losses 100×. Now, instead of 10× and 100× we are using something like 1000× and 1000000× respectively in case of 400kV and 0.4kV (380V three phase in Europe).

    Hey, why is Power loss = Current ^2 x Resistance ?

  • @onlyhumanity6148
    @onlyhumanity6148 Рік тому

    The power consumed is also equal to v²/R. In that case for 40,000volt the energy dissipiated would be higher than that at 230v. Isnt it?? Please make me clear on this.

    • @melle6333
      @melle6333 Рік тому +1

      When you use V²/R, you use the difference in voltage between the ends of the line (voltage drop) as V. But, there is pretty much no voltage drop across the line. It's 400.000 on both sides, so pretty much no difference, therefore V is very very low.
      Hope this makes it clear.
      Good question.

    A transformer to electrical is the exact same as a transmission to mechanical. It changes the voltage / current - rpm / torque ratio.

    Why didn't current increases with increase in voltage 🤔

    • @melle6333
      @melle6333 Рік тому

      Because if you use a higher voltage transformer (at both sides of the transmission line), the impedance of the primary coil also becomes higher, limiting the current even though the voltage is increased. However, impedance does not waste energy like resistance does, so therefore the total efficiency is increased.
      Hope this makes it clear.
      Good question by the way.

    Could you relate this to three phase voltage sources and loads?

    • @ftscotttinez33

      Also, the cost of materials between using 3 line vs two line phase and loads.

      @@ftscotttinez33 North America had electrification (AC current) before the remainder of the world. Therefore the LATE ARRIVALS improved upon
      that system. Electing to use either 230/240 volt systems for all household uses.

    • @Teh_Random_Canadian
      @Teh_Random_Canadian Рік тому

      3 phase you add route means square, or root3. Which is about 1.732. 30 000 watts at 240V is 125A single phase. 30 000 watts at 208V 3phase is 83A. Even though the voltage is slightly less a 3phase system will still draw much less current for the same load, increasing efficiency.

      @@tedlahm5740 North America uses what is known as "split-phase". As in it is only 1 240V phase but the neutral is tapped in the center of the secondary, giving you 120V on each split and 240 across the entire phase for larger loads
