Distribution Transformer & Power Transformer

Distribution Transformer: A Distribution Transformer is a type of transformer used to step down the voltage from the transmission level to the distribution level, making it suitable for delivery to end-users.

Key Features:
Voltage Step-down: Reduces voltage from the primary transmission level to a safe, usable voltage for consumers.
Compact Design: Designed to be smaller and lighter for ease of installation in urban areas and residential neighborhoods.

Applications:
Residential and Commercial Power Supply: Provides power for homes, businesses, and small industrial facilities.
Electricity Distribution Networks: Used in local areas for stepping down high voltage from transmission lines.

Power Transformer: A Power Transformer is a large electrical device used to step up or step down voltages in high-voltage power transmission systems. Power transformers are primarily used in the transmission and distribution of electricity over long distances.

Key Features:
Voltage Step-up or Step-down: Power transformers either increase or decrease the voltage levels in a power system for efficient transmission and distribution.
High Capacity: Designed to handle large amounts of electrical power with higher voltage ratings compared to distribution transformers.
Robust Design: Built to handle high-power applications and withstand high stress in terms of both load and environmental conditions.

Applications:
Power Generation Stations: Used to step up voltage for efficient transmission from power plants.
Substations: Located in substations for stepping down the voltage for distribution or further transmission.
