Small kVA 3 Phase Transformer Selection GuideTEMCo transformers and Euro-Standard transformers are used to convert standard 3 phase U.S. voltages to standard 3 phase European voltages. This is useful when importing European Machinery into the U.S. Additionally, these transformers come in 50 or 60Hz with most of the larger sizes rated for 50 and 60Hz, allowing them be connected in reverse to convert European voltages to U.S. voltages when importing U.S. machinery into Europe. Either way, these transformers are built to last, guaranteed! That's why we back these with a decade long warranty. Connections are made simple with TEMCo Euro-Standard transformers. Multiple taps are provided on the output for 380, 400, or 415v Wye configured outputs. For the larger 3 Kva and up sizes, All your input and output connections can be made via the provided fast connection lugs. Rigid GPO-3 fiberglass primary buss strut ensures connections remain secure through the life of the installation. |

Selecting a Transformer
Selecting the right voltage transformer is simple. Review the following considerations to determine the best fit for your application, then select a transformer from one of the tables below.
Input Voltage
Select a transformer that will operate on the supply voltage available at your facility (Example: V, 240V, or 480V). Check the connection diagram, which TEMCo includes on each product page, to ensure compatibility.
Frequency
If you are operating in the United States, you will most likely be operating on 60hz. However should you need a 50hz rated transformer, make sure you are selecting from that section.
Availability
TEMCo Transformers have a 1 week production time for 350-2000va and 1-2 weeks production time for 3 Kva and up.
Windings
Copper wound models cost more than the equivalent aluminum wound versions. The primary advantage of copper is its superior corrosion resistance. Copper wound transformers are commonly used for corrosive or high humidity environments like marine applications, and when cost is not a factor.
kVA or Amp Output
Select a transformer with kVA based on your load requirements. It is encouraged to oversize your transformer, but you should never undersize for your load. For motor loads, do not exceed 60% of the maximum capacity of the transformer. This is because electric motors have start up requirements significantly higher than their running requirements. It is OK to oversize significantly, but never to undersize.
