Input Voltage

Select a transformer that will operate on the supply voltage available at your facility (Example: 120V, 240V, or 480V). To ensure compatibility, check the wiring diagram by clicking a part number and viewing its product page.

Frequency

All the transformers in this section are rated for both 50 and 60 Hz, for use worldwide.

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 fine to oversize significantly, but never to undersize for your load. For motor loads, do not exceed 60% of the maximum capacity of the transformer, because electric motors have start up requirements significantly higher than their running requirements.
