utility transformer

We use lots of electricity each day, for things like lights or the television (we call this a TV). Our homes would be pitch black and we couldn't watch TV or play games on our computers without electricity. This big machine is called a utility transformer because all of the electricity needs to pass through it before we can use it safely in our homes and buildings. This machine is very important to how we receive electricity.

A utility transformer is the most massive machine that helps lower the current from high voltage to low voltage. High voltage electricity is dangerous if used improperly. Over power lines, it travels long distances to our towns and cities. Conversely, low voltage electricity is way more safer and has a wider usage in our homes and buildings. The kind of electricity that runs our lightbulbs and appliances without killing us in the process.

Significance of a utility transformer in power distribution system

Power plants have machines with names like turbines and generators, but just about the only place you'll see those is here. They generate a lot of power, but that they normally produce electricity at quite high voltage. This high voltage electric power is transmitted to all grid points across the country on a network of transcontinental transmission lines called "power grids. And this is where the utility transformer kicks in. It serves to reduce the voltage of electricity so that it can pass through power lines in a secure and efficient manner for distribution into our homes and buildings. Basically, if we did not have these utility transformers then it would be unsafe for us to make use of electricity.
