Members ashivraj Posted October 24, 2005 Members Share Posted October 24, 2005 Originally posted by agedhorse Of course, the DC current increases by the same factor as the transformation ratio... there's no free lunch. Huh? I thought that voltage and current go opposite ways in a transformer... i.e. if voltage is being stepped up, current comes down... AS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members agedhorse Posted October 25, 2005 Author Members Share Posted October 25, 2005 Originally posted by ashivraj Input current goes up as the output current goes down. 2 different equations depending on if you are looking at the input or output of the transforming device. Power in = Power out (+ efficiency losses of course). Huh? I thought that voltage and current go opposite ways in a transformer... i.e. if voltage is being stepped up, current comes down...
