Mains transformers

In our C-core mains transformers, a very small air-gap is used to compensate for any DC unbalance in the mains outlet. Secondary voltages listed are no-load voltages.

Voltage drop because of load is to be calculated from transformer copper resistance and load current. Electrical size is estimated to 250VA, which can be increased with good cooling. For optimal use, about 75% of power should be taken from secondary 1.

Primaries should be connected in series for 210 - 250 V, in parallel for 105 - 125V. Table entries are calculated for primary voltage 230 V.
