As a power equipment purchaser, you are likely to be confused when selecting: Can a силовой трансформатор really increase the voltage? This issue directly determines the transmission efficiency and cost control of the project. After all, if you need to convert the medium and low voltage of the power plant to high voltage for long-distance transmission, or match high-voltage power supply for industrial equipment, choosing the right transformer that can accurately step up the voltage is crucial.
This article will deconstruct the principle of voltage boosting, voltage characteristics, and application scenarios of power transformers, deeply integrate the advantages of Чуаньли products, help you thoroughly understand the key issues related to “voltage boosting”, and accurately match project requirements.
A B transmits electrical energy between different circuits through electromagnetic induction, and its core mission is to convert voltage levels, not to generate or increase power. This directly answers“Does a transformer increase power?” The question: The answer is no.
The energy conservation logic of the power transformer is very simple: when the voltage is increased, the current decreases, and when the voltage is reduced, the current increases, and the input and output power (after deducting a small amount of loss) are basically the same. For buyers, this means that they do not need to worry about whether the power is increased when selecting, but should focus on core indicators such as “voltage conversion accuracy”, “boosting range”, and “stability”, which are the key factors that affect the operation of the project.
Whether it is the conventional step-up model or the high voltage high frequency transformer, all are designed with “precise voltage conversion + low loss” as the core, suitable for all scenarios from power generation to high-voltage power supply to industrial end, which is also the core reason why many buyers choose Чуаньли.
The essence of the power transformer step-up is the electromagnetic induction phenomenon. When the AC current flows into the primary winding, a changing magnetic field will be generated in the iron core, and this magnetic field will pass through the secondary winding, inducing an AC voltage. Without a changing magnetic field, there is no voltage conversion, which is the basic logic of boosting.
In the step-up transformer, Чуаньли uses a high-permeability amorphous alloy iron core. Compared with the ordinary iron core, the magnetic field transmission efficiency is improved by 20%. It can reduce magnetic leakage, make electromagnetic induction more complete, and lay the foundation for high-efficiency step-up.
The core law of boosting is “turn ratio = voltage ratio”: the more turns of the auxiliary winding, the higher the induced voltage. For example, the primary winding has 100 turns, and the secondary winding has 10,000 turns, with a turn ratio of 1:10. If the input voltage is 10 kV, the output voltage will be 100 kV, perfectly realizing the step-up.
During the boosting process, as the voltage increases, the current will decrease in proportion – this is the inevitable result of energy conservation. For example, the Chuanli 110 kV step-up transformer has an input side of 10.5 kV and a current of 2000 A, an output side of 110 k V and a current of about 191 A, and the power (after deducting losses) remains basically unchanged.
The significance of this feature for buyers is that after boosting, the current decreases, and the transmission line loss (proportional to the square of the current) will be significantly reduced, which can save a lot of transmission costs. This is also the core reason why step-up transformers must be used in long-distance power transmission.
The material and structure of the iron core directly affect the charging stability. If the core has a low permeability and a large hysteresis loss, it will cause voltage fluctuations and serious heat generation, which will affect the boosting effect.
The step-up transformer of Чуаньли uses 0.3mm high magnetic permeability silicon steel sheets stacked on the iron core, coupled with a precise clamping structure, to reduce magnetic strain and eddy current losses; At the same time, through the automated core stacking process, the magnetic field distribution is ensured to be uniform, and the voltage fluctuation can be controlled within ±2% even under full load boosting conditions, ensuring stable operation of the equipment.
When the power transformer is stepped up, only the amplitude of voltage and current is changed, and the frequency remains consistent with the input side (such as 50Hz in China’s power grid). This is very important for buyers – industrial equipment and power grid systems have fixed requirements for frequency, and frequency changes can cause equipment to malfunction.
Chuanli‘s high voltage high frequency transformer It is a special case: it is designed for special scenarios (such as high-frequency power supply, precision electronic equipment) and can realize boosting at high frequency (kHz level), but the boosting demand of the ordinary power system is still dominated by the industrial frequency (50/60 Hz) transformer, which can be precisely matched according to your frequency demand.
After boosting, the operating voltage of the transformer is high, and the heat generated by the loss is higher. If the heat dissipation is not timely, it will accelerate the aging of the insulation and cause faults. The cooling system is the “lifeline” for the safe operation of the high-voltage step-up transformer.
As a purchaser, knowing the power transformer voltage range will help you quickly locate suitable products. Chuanli Power Transformer Manufacturer‘s step-up transformers cover all voltage levels, from low to high voltage, fully meeting the needs of different projects.

Boosting is not an “optional function,” but rather a core part of the efficient operation of the power system, which is also the fundamental reason for you to purchase a boosting transformer:
Reduce transmission loss: The higher the voltage, the smaller the current, and the lower the resistance loss of the transmission line (P = I²R). For example, when the transmission voltage is increased from 10 kV to 110 kV, the current is only 1/11 of the original, and the loss is reduced to 1/12.1 of the original, which can greatly reduce the electricity bill.
Adaptation to high-voltage equipment requirements: Many industrial pieces of equipment (such as large motors and furnaces) require a 35kV or higher high-voltage power supply, and the step-up transformer is the key bridge connecting the power grid and the equipment. Chuanli’s industrial-grade step-up transformer supports 120% of the rated load for short-term operation and can meet the instantaneous high-voltage requirements of industrial equipment.
Understanding the application scenario can help you more accurately determine whether you need to purchase a step-up transformer and which type to choose:
Power plant step-up
The output voltage of the generator in the power plant is usually 6.3 kV and 10.5 kV, which cannot meet the long-distance transmission requirements. The voltage needs to be raised to 35kV, 110kV, or even 220kV through a step-up transformer before being connected to the power grid. Чуаньли 110kV / 220kV step-up transformer has been applied in many national-level power generation projects, with an energy efficiency of more than 98.5%, which is the core choice of power plants.
Long-distance transmission projects
Projects such as power transmission from the west to the east and interconnection of regional power grids require the long-distance transmission of power from energy bases to load centers, and step-up transformers are essential equipment. Чуаньли‘s large-scale step-up transformer, equipped with load-switching, can adjust voltage in real time to cope with voltage fluctuations in the transmission process, ensuring stable power delivery.
High-voltage power supply in industrial parks
In industrial parks such as iron and steel, chemical, and machinery manufacturing, there is a lot of high-voltage equipment (such as high-voltage motors and electric arc furnaces), and the 10 kV voltage of the power grid needs to be raised to 35 kV. Chuanli’s industrial-grade step-up transformer, with anti-corrosion coating and IP65 protection, can adapt to the dust and high temperature environment in industrial parks, and the maintenance cycle is extended to 5 years.
New energy power generation projects
The output voltage of photovoltaic and wind power projects is unstable, and it needs to be connected to the high-voltage power grid. It needs to be raised to 10kV/ 35kV through a step-up transformer. Чуаньли new energy-specific step-up transformer is optimized for fluctuating loads, with a voltage regulation response time of less than 20 ms, perfectly matching the power generation characteristics of photovoltaic / wind power.
Special high-frequency scenarios
In scenarios such as precision electronic equipment and high-frequency power supply systems, a high-frequency and high-voltage power supply is required, and a high-voltage high-frequency transformer is the first choice. Chuanli’s high-frequency step-up transformer adopts a high-frequency iron core and precision winding, which can realize stable step-up at kHz frequency, meeting the power supply requirements of special equipment.
As a purchaser, you no longer need to worry about whether the power transformer can increase the voltage. The step-up transformer can accurately realize the increase of voltage level through core mechanisms such as electromagnetic induction and winding ratio design, and does not change the power and frequency. The key to selecting a step-up transformer lies in matching the voltage range, application scenario, and stability requirements of the project.
The essence of purchasing a step-up transformer is to purchase “high-efficiency and stable voltage conversion capability”. By choosing Чуаньли, you can not only get high-quality products that meet international standards, but also get professional selection guidance and after-sales guarantee, so that the high-voltage power supply requirements of the project can be perfectly met.
Q1: What is the voltage regulation accuracy of the Chuanli step-up transformer?
A: The voltage regulation precision of Chuanli‘s power transformer is extremely high; the voltage error of the conventional step-up model is ≤±1%, and the high voltage high frequency transformer. The error is ≤±0.5%, which fully meets the precise voltage requirements of industrial equipment and power grid transmission.
Q2: Does a transformer increase power? If the power of the equipment is insufficient after boosting, is it a problem with the transformer?
A: A transformer does not increase power; it only converts voltage and current. If the equipment power is insufficient after boosting, it is most likely due to improper capacity matching during selection (such as the transformer capacity is less than the equipment demand), rather than the problem of boosting itself. Chuanli‘s technical team will accurately calculate the required capacity according to your equipment power and voltage requirements to avoid such problems.
Q3: Does Chuanli’s step-up transformer support a customized voltage range?
A: Chuanli fully supports customization and can flexibly adjust the turns ratio and structural design according to your input/output voltage requirements.
Q4: How to choose between a high voltage high frequency transformer and oan rdinary step-up transformer?
A: For long-distance transmission and industrial high-voltage power supply in conventional power systems (50/60 Hz), ordinary step-up transformers can be selected; If used in high-frequency power supply, precision electronic equipment, and other special scenarios (frequency kHz level), a high-voltage high-frequency transformer should be selected.
