PALECO –
Palawan Electric Cooperative
Before it finally enters our home a step-
down transformer that are located at
the poles reduces the electricity into
what range?
- 220 -250 volts
That is the standard alternating current
voltage in Philippines. This voltage
powers most of the electrical
appliances we have at homes.
In some other countries their standard
voltage is 110-120 voltage that’s why if
we buy appliances abroad, we also
need to?
- Buy transformer for it to operate here
in the Philippines
What are the two types of transformer?
- Step up transformer and step-down
transformer sir. Step up transformer
used to increase the voltage of
electrical energy while step down
transformer used to reduce the voltage
the electrical energy.
