the Independent review of our Stepdowns
To
determine which below Step Down transformer you need please
check these five questions first:
1.
What
is the total watts used
by appliances to be connected to the Transformer?
Select from our Stepdowns range below based on how many watts
your device uses. Choose the next item above your watts usage.
E.g: Playstation 3 uses 380
Watts so you need the 500 watt stepdown transformer.
2.
Does
your appliance have a motor ?
If a motor is included then you should select a stepdown rating approx 25% higher than your motor as a buffer. Motors have a higher power use on the stepdowns and startup currents which need to be allowed for. Most motors have a rating plate on them with their Power and Amperage rating.
3. Does
your appliance have a
mechanical
timing device?
If
so, how critical is this timing device? The Transformer cannot change the Frequency. It is 50Hz.
If a
timing device is included the speed of the device may change due
to the frequency change, 60Hz to 50Hz (eg old clocks, motors / fans) Most modern electronic devices should not be affected.
4. Do
you know the Amps
of your device? - is so you can calculate the
watts required:
Calculated
as Watts = Amps x 110Volts (eg 5 A x 110 V = 550 watts)
5. Do
you wish to use
multiple
appliances from
one stepdown?
Check
total watts of all devices this must be less than the VA (Watt) rating
of the stepdown & get a US Powerboard. (for up to 5 devices)
