In a step-down transformer, the secondary voltage Es is less than the primary voltage Ep, so the turns ratio K is less than 1 and the number of secondary turns Ns is less than the number of primary turns Np. The transformer equation relates the primary and secondary currents and voltages such that when input power equals output power, the ratio of secondary to primary voltage equals the inverse ratio of primary to secondary current.

If Ip = value of primary current at the same instant And Is = value of secondary current at this instant, then Input power at the instant = Ep Ip And Output power at the same instant = Es Is If there are no losses of power in the transformer, then Input power = output power Or Ep Ip = Es Is Or Es / Ep = Ip / Is = K
IN A STEP DOWN TRANSFORMER
Es < E so K < 1, hence Ns < Np If Ip = value of primary current at the same instant And Is = value of secondary current at this instant, then Input power at the instant = Ep Ip And Output power at the same instant = Es Is If there are no losses of power in the transformer, then Input power = output power Or Ep Ip = Es Is Or Es / Ep = Ip / Is = K
