• Potential transformers are also known as voltage transformers and they are basically step
down transformers.
• Potential transformers step down the voltage of high magnitude to a lower voltage which
can be measured with standard measuring instrument.
• These transformers have large number of primary turns and smaller number of secondary
turns.
• A potential transformer is typically expressed in primary to secondary voltage ratio. For
example, a 600:120 Potential Transformer would mean the voltage across secondary is 120
volts when primary voltage is 600 volts.
