What is difference between a potential transformer and a step down distrbution transformer

Question

Accepted Answer

A potential transformer is used to measure voltage, while a step down distribution transformer is used to reduce voltage.

Potential transformers are used in electrical measurement systems to step down high voltage to a lower, measurable voltage.
Step down distribution transformers are used in power distribution systems to reduce high voltage to a lower voltage suitable for use in homes and businesses.
Potential transformers are typically smaller and used for measurement purposes, while step down distribution transformers are larger and used for power distribution.
Examples of potential transformers include voltage transformers used in power systems and instrument transformers used in electrical measurement systems.
Examples of step down distribution transformers include the transformers used by power companies to distribute electricity to homes and businesses.
