    Control transformer hookup question.

    I went ahead and hooked it up the way that was suggested in the older thread (Line on H1 and H10 and H5 and H7 connected together) and now I'm getting 113-114v on the secondary side. I realize I lost some capacity from the transformer but now I'm at a voltage I am happy with and should still...

    Control transformer hookup question.

    This was the other old thread I found that had basically the same issue I am having and the solution was what I am looking to do, I'm just not sure if my taps would be the same as the schematic drawing is slightly different. Essentially utilize the entire secondary side and only a section of the...

    Control transformer hookup question.

    I'm in ME ,not in CA, its the VPN at my workplace if the IP came up in CA. The primary is 220V. This is a panel being fed by its own 3 phase transformer in a factory. In regards to the other suggestion, if you look at the schematic the 240V connections are the same as the 220V connections. I...

    Control transformer hookup question.

    I have a Hammond HPS Fortress 500va controls transformer in a control panel I built for a hydro-pneumatic pump control system. The incoming power is 3 phase 220V and I wanted 120V power for the controls circuitry. My secondary voltage is hovering around 129V under the minimal load of the...
