As it gets closer to your house it goes to a sub station where the voltage is lowered and then sent on its way. It finally arrives in your neighborhood and is sent to a transformer where the voltage is lowered to 220 volts. This is what comes into your house and goes to the circuit breaker box. The next section describes a bit of technical mumbo jumbo about sine waves and phase relationships.
Step-up transformer extends the voltages from 220v-11kv or above, whereas, step-down transformer reduces the voltages from 440-220v,220-110v or 110-24v,20v,10vetc. Point to Remember: The Same transformer can be used as a step-up or a step-down transformer.
