A transformer is a passive component that transfers electrical energy from one electrical circuit to another circuit, or multiple circuits. It works on the principle of electromagnetic induction to step up or step down voltage. Transformers are employed for widely varying purposes. It is a static electrical machine which transfers AC electrical power from one circuit to the other circuit at the constant frequency, but the voltage level can be altered.
