The High Voltage Transformer is used to turn Extreme Voltage (EV) EU current into High Voltage (HV) and back. Only HV Cable can carry EV. HV Cable carrying EV has 8 times the loss vs Glass Fibre Cable carrying HV.
(EV is 513-4096 EU/t)
(HV is 129-512 EU/t)
(MV is 33-128 EU/t)
(LV is 1-32 EU/t)
EV current, such as nuclear reactor current, must be wired into the EV face (the 3-dotted one), while HV current can be wired into any other face. By default, the Transformer outputs HV current. A Redstone signal must be applied to it in order to make it reverse flow, thereby emitting EV current from the EV face (the 3-dotted one).

Usage[]
When using any Transformer, remember that the 3-dotted face means higher current and the 1-dotted face means lower current. You can change the direction the 3-dotted face is facing by right-clicking a 1-dotted face with a Wrench.
Converting to HV[]
In order to convert EV to HV, you must point the cable carrying EV from another HV Transformer to the 3-dotted face and then link a cable to one of the faces with a single dot. Then that cable will be carrying HV that you can link to an MFS Unit or an MV Transformer.
Converting to EV[]
In order to convert HV to EV, point the cable carrying HV from an MFS Unit or an MV Transformer to one of the one-dotted sides and then link a cable that can carry EV (HV Cable) to the 3-dotted side. Do not forget to apply redstone to the HV Transformer.
