A low-voltage lighting system in a workshop is supplied by a transformer connected to a 230 V supply. When all the lamps are switched on, the potential difference across the secondary coil is 48 V and the current in the secondary coil is 12 A. The transformer is 100% efficient.
Calculate the current in the primary coil.
