उत्तर
a, b and d
Explanation:
As we know that power = `I_(rms)^2R`
So to decrease power loss Irms and R must be lower for a constant power supply. To decrease Irms, Vrms must be increased by step up transformer to get same power in step-up transformer
For a given power level, we find that
P = ErmsIrms ......(Irms is low when Erms is high)
Power loss = `I_(rms)^2` R = low ......(∵ Irms is low)
Now at the receiving end, high voltage is reduced by using step-down transformers.
