Question

Does a transformer convert $AC$ to$DC$$?$

Answer 1

1. The transformer only works on AC and can’t be operated on DC i.e. it has been designed to be operated only and only on alternating current and voltage.
2. The transformer can be a step-up or step-down current.
3. A transformer that increases the voltage from the primary to the secondary is called a step-up transformer. The step-down transformer decreases the voltage from primary to secondary.
4. A transformer is not designed to convert $AC$ to$DC$ or$DC$ to $AC$.
