Study Notes
Step-Down Technique
- The primary purpose of the step-down technique is to reduce the voltage of an alternating current (AC) to a lower level.
Benefits and Applications
- A key benefit of using the step-down technique is that it allows for efficient transmission and distribution of electrical power over long distances without significant energy loss.
- The step-down technique is most useful when transmitting power from a high-voltage transmission line to a lower-voltage distribution line or to a specific device or load.
Characteristics
- A key characteristic of the step-down technique is that it utilizes a transformer to decrease the voltage of the alternating current, making it suitable for various applications.
