A step up transformer operates on a 230 ...

A step up transformer operates on a 230 V line and a load current of 2 ampere. The ratio of the primary and secondary windings is 1:25. What is the current in the primary ?

Using the relation `(N_(P))/(N_(S)) = (I_(S))/(I_(P)), I_(P) = (N_(S)I_(S))/(N_(P))`
Here `N_(P)//N_(S) = 1//25` or
`N_(S)//N_(P) = 25//1 = 25` and `I_(S) = 2A`
Current in primary, `I_(P) = 25 xx 2 = 50 A`
