I've seen places where caps have been used to reduce AC voltages from 277 down to 120 volts. I'm wondering if the same principal can be applied to transformers - particularly, their secondary output sides.
Suppose - and this is all this question is addressing, a supposition - suppose you have a transformer with a secondary output of oh, lets say 48VAC. Can you use a cap to further reduce that voltage to something like, let's just pick a number - 10VAC? If the principal can be applied to line voltage then shouldn't it be applicable to the secondary voltage?
I'm just asking out of curiosity. Have no plans for any such project at present.
