(N/A) The two types of transformers based on their construction and function are:
$1$. $Step-up$ transformer: This transformer increases the voltage of an alternating current $(AC)$ supply. In this,the number of turns in the secondary coil $(N_s)$ is greater than the number of turns in the primary coil $(N_p)$,i.e.,$N_s > N_p$.
$2$. $Step-down$ transformer: This transformer decreases the voltage of an alternating current $(AC)$ supply. In this,the number of turns in the secondary coil $(N_s)$ is less than the number of turns in the primary coil $(N_p)$,i.e.,$N_s < N_p$.
