To measure electrical current
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The primary function of an electrical transformer is to increase (step up) or decrease (step down) voltage levels in an AC (alternating current) electrical circuit. Transformers work on the principle of electromagnetic induction and are essential for efficient power transmission and distribution over long distances. They do not convert AC to DC, store electrical energy, or measure electrical current.
