Answer # 1 #
The turns ratio is the ratio of primary winding turns to secondary winding turns: Turns ratio (N1/N2) = Primary turns / Secondary turns. It determines whether the transformer steps up or steps down the voltage. Example: if N1=100 and N2=50, the ratio is 2:1, meaning it halves the voltage.
