Can Transformers be used to change voltages in amounts greater than shown in the Buck & Boost literature?
Issue:
Buck and Boost Transformers have a limited voltage range
Product Line:
LV Transformers
Environment:
Applies to Resin Epoxy Encapsulated Transformers by SquareD/Schneider Electric
Cause:
Wider ranges of voltages may have to be increased or decreased than Buck and Boost Transformers can handle
Resolution:
Yes, standard single phase lighting Transformers can be used in Autotransformer wiring configurations to achieve much greater voltage changes than available with Buck & Boost Transformers. Contact your local SquareD/Schenider Electric Sales Office for further assistance. Or see pages 19-21 of below attachment for more information.
