Hello all,
Please help me understand...I bought locally sold plug in the wall step down transformers to adapt my U.S.120V stuff to 230V house power in Australia. The largest transformer is a 2000W step down. The question is, if the transformer is plugged into the wall (230V) and the devices that are powered by it are off, is power being consumed? The transformer, even though the devices are off, gives off heat.
Thanks.
