DRY-TYPE DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMERS

Transformer Questions & Answers
1. What is a transformer and how does it work?
A transformer is an electrical apparatus designed to convert
alternating current from one voltage to another. It can be
designed to “step up” or “step down” voltages and works
on the magnetic induction principle. A transformer has no
moving parts and is a completely static solid state device,
which insures, under normal operating conditions, a long
and trouble-free life. It consists, in its simplest form, of
two or more coils of insulated wire wound on a laminated
steel core. When voltage is introduced to one coil, called
the primary, it magnetizes the iron core. A voltage is then
induced in the other coil, called the secondary or output coil.
The change of voltage (or voltage ratio) between the primary
and secondary depends on the turns ratio of the two coils.

6. Can transformers be used in parallel? Single phase
transformers can be used in parallel only when their
impedances and voltages are equal. If unequal voltages
are used, a circulating current exists in the closed network
between the two transformers, which will cause excess
heating and result in a shorter life of the transformer. In
addition, impedance values of each transformer must be
within 7.5% of each other. For example: Transformer A has
an impedance of 4%, transformer B which is to be parallel
to A must have an impedance between the limits of 3.7%
and 4.3%. When paralleling three phase transformers, the
same precautions must be observed as listed above, plus
the angular displacement and phasing between the two
transformers must be identical.

2. What are taps and when are they used? Taps are
provided on some transformers on the high voltage winding
to correct for high or low voltage conditions, and still deliver
full rated output voltages at the secondary terminals.
Standard tap arrangements are at two-and-one-half and
five percent of the rated primary voltage for both high and
low voltage conditions. For example, if the transformer has
a 480 volt primary and the available line voltage is running
at 504 volts, the primary should be connected to the 5%
tap above normal in order that the secondary voltage be
maintained at the proper rating. The standard ASA and
NEMA designation for taps are “ANFC” (above normal full
capacity) and “BNFC” (below normal full capacity).

7. Can Acme Transformers be reverse connected?
ACME dry-type distribution transformers can be reverse
connected without a loss of kVA rating, but there are
certain limitations. Transformers rated 1 kVA and larger
single phase, 3 kVA and larger three phase can be reverse
connected without any adverse effects or loss in kVA
capacity. The reason for this limitation in kVA size is, the
turns ratio is the same as the voltage ratio. Example: A
transformer with a 480 volt input, 240 volt output— can
have the output connected to a 240 volt source and thereby
become the primary or input to the transformer, then the
original 480 volt primary winding will become the output
or 480 volt secondary. On transformers rated below 1 kVA
single phase, there is a turns ratio compensation on the
low voltage winding. This means the low voltage winding
has a greater voltage than the nameplate voltage indicates
at no load. For example, a small single phase transformer
having a nameplate voltage of 480 volts primary and 240
volts secondary, would actually have a no load voltage
of approximately 250 volts, and a full load voltage of 240
volts. If the 240 volt winding were connected to a 240 volt
source, then the output voltage would consequently be
approximately 460 volts at no load and approximately
442 volts at full load. As the kVA becomes smaller, the
compensation is greater— resulting in lower output voltages.
When one attempts to use these transformers in reverse, the
transformer will not be harmed; however, the output voltage
will be lower than is indicated by the nameplate.

3. What is the difference between “Insulating,”
“Isolating,” and “Shielded Winding” transformers?
Insulating and isolating transformers are identical. These
terms are used to describe the isolation of the primary
and secondary windings, or insulation between the two.
A shielded transformer is designed with a metallic shield
between the primary and secondary windings to attenuate
transient noise. This is especially important in critical
applications such as computers, process controllers and
many other microprocessor controlled devices. All two,
three and four winding transformers are of the insulating or
isolating types. Only autotransformers, whose primary and
secondary are connected to each other electrically, are not
of the insulating or isolating variety.
4. Can transformers be operated at voltages other than
nameplate voltages? In some cases, transformers can be
operated at voltages below the nameplate rated voltage. In
NO case should a transformer be operated at a voltage in
excess of its nameplate rating, unless taps are provided for
this purpose. When operating below the rated voltage, the
kVA capacity is reduced correspondingly. For example, if
a 480 volt primary transformer with a 240 volt secondary is
operated at 240 volts, the secondary voltage is reduced to
120 volts. If the transformer was originally rated 10 kVA, the
reduced rating would be 5 kVA, or in direct proportion to the
applied voltage.
5. Can 60 Hz transformers be operated at 50 Hz?
ACME transformers rated below 1 kVA can be used on 50
Hz service. Transformers 1 kVA and larger, rated at 60 Hz,
should not be used on 50 Hz service, due to the higher
losses and resultant heat rise. Special designs are required
for this service. However, any 50 Hz transformer will operate
on a 60 Hz service.
6

Section 1_0412.indd 6

8. Can a Single Phase Transformer be used on a
Three Phase source? Yes. Any single phase transformer
can be used on a three phase source by connecting the
primary leads to any two wires of a three phase system,
regardless of whether the source is three phase 3-wire or
three phase 4-wire. The transformer output will be single
phase.
9. Can Transformers develop Three Phase power
from a Single Phase source? No. Phase converters or
phase shifting devices such as reactors and capacitors are
required to convert single phase power to three phase.
10. How do you select transformers?
(1) Determine primary voltage and frequency.
(2) Determine secondary voltage required.
(3) Determine the capacity required in volt-amperes.

This is done by multiplying the load current (amperes) by
the load voltage (volts) for single phase. For example: if the

DRY-TYPE DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMERS

load is 40 amperes, such as a motor, and the secondary
voltage is 240 volts, then 240 x 40 equals 9600 VA. A 10
kVA (10,000volt-amperes) transformer is required. ALWAYS
SELECT THE TRANSFORMER LARGER THAN THE ACTUAL
LOAD. This is done for safety purposes and allows for
expansion, in case more load is added at a later date. For 3
phase kVA, multiply rated volts x load amps x 1.73 (square
root of 3) then divide by 1000.
(4) Determine whether taps are required. Taps are
usually specified on larger transformers.
(5) Use the selection charts in Section I.
11. What terminations are provided? Primary and
Secondary Terminations are provided on ACME Dry-Type
Transformers as follows:

No lugs— lead type connection on
0-25 kVA single phase
0-15 kVA three phase
Bus-bar terminations
(drilled to NEMA standards)
37.5 -250 kVA single phase
25-500 kVA three phase

insulation class 130°C. Compound filled transformers use
insulation class 180°C. Larger ventilated transformers are
designed to use 220°C insulation. All of these insulation
systems will normally have the same number of years
operating life. A well designed transformer, observing these
temperature limits, will have a life expectancy of 20-25
years.
17. Why should Dry-Type Transformers never be overloaded? Overloading of a transformer results in excessive
temperature. This excessive temperature causes
overheating which will result in rapid deterioration of the
insulation and cause complete failure of the transformer coils.
18. Are temperature rise and actual surface
temperature related? No. This can be compared with an
ordinary light bulb. The filament temperature of a light bulb
can exceed 2000 degrees, yet the surface temperature of
the bulb is low enough to permit touching with bare hands.
19. What is meant by “impedance” in transformers?
Impedance is the current limiting characteristic of a
transformer and is expressed in percentage.

Total Winding Temperature °C

12. Can 60 Hz transformers be used at higher frequencies?
ACME transformers can be used at frequencies above 60 Hz
up through 400 Hz with no limitations provided nameplate
voltages are not exceeded. However, 60 Hz transformers will
have less voltage regulation at 400 Hz than 60 Hz.
13. What is meant by regulation in a transformer?
Voltage regulation in transformers is the difference between
the no load voltage and the full load voltage. This is usually
expressed in terms of percentage. For example: A transformer
delivers 100 volts at no load and the voltage drops to 95
volts at full load, the regulation would be 5%. ACME drytype distribution transformers generally have regulation
from 2% to 4%, depending on the size and the application
for which they are used.
14. What is temperature rise in a transformer?
Temperature rise in a transformer is the temperature of
the windings and insulation above the existing ambient or
surrounding temperature.
15. What is “Class” in insulation? Insulation class
was the original method used to distinguish insulating
materials operating at different temperature levels. Letters
were used for different designations. Letter classifications
have been replaced by insulation system temperatures
in degrees Celsius. The system temperature is the
maximum temperature at the hottest spot in the winding
(coil). Graphical representations of six insulation systems
recognized by Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc. are shown in
Figure A. These systems are used by Acme for a large part
of the product line.
16. Is one insulation system better than another?
Not necessarily. It depends on the application and the
cost benefit to be realized. Higher temperature class
insulation systems cost more and larger transformers are more
expensive to build. Therefore, the more expensive insulation
systems are more likely to be found in the larger kVA units.

Referring to Figure A, small fractional kVA transformers use

20. Why is impedance important? It is used for determining
the interrupting capacity of a circuit breaker or fuse employed
to protect the primary of a transformer. Example: Determine
a minimum circuit breaker trip rating and interrupting capacity
for a 10 kVA single phase transformer with 4% impedance,
to be operated from a 480 volt 60 Hz source.

Example: Determine the interrupting capacity, in amperes, of
a circuit breaker or fuse required for a 75 kVA, three phase
transformer, with a primary of 480 volts delta and secondary
of 208Y/120 volts. The transformer impedance (Z) = 5%. If the
secondary is short circuited (faulted), the following capacities
are required:
Normal Full Load Current =

1,800 Amps
The breaker or fuse would have a minimum interrupting rating of
1,800 amps at 480 volts.
NOTE: The secondary voltage is not used in the calculation.
The reason is the primary circuit of the transformer is the only
winding being interrupted.
21. Can Single Phase Transformers be used for Three Phase
applications? Yes. Three phase transformers are sometimes
not readily available whereas single phase transformers can
generally be found in stock. Three single phase transformers can
be used in delta connected primary and wye or delta connected
secondary. They should never be connected wye primary to wye
secondary, since this will result in unstable secondary voltage.
The equivalent three phase capacity when properly connected
of three single phase transformers is three times the nameplate
rating of each single phase transformer. For example: Three
10 kVA single phase transformers will accommodate a 30 kVA
three phase load.
22. Does ACME provide “Zig-Zag” Grounding Transformers?
Yes. Please refer to Page 31 for a special diagram which
can be used to connect standard single phase off-the-shelf
transformers in a three phase zig-zag manner. This system can
be used for either grounding or developing a fourth wire from
a three phase neutral. An example would be to change a 480
V — three phase — three wire system to a 480Y/277 V — three
phase — four wire system.
23. What color are ACME Dry-Type Transformers?
ASA 61 (NEMA) light gray is used on all enclosed transformers
from .050 to 1000 kVA.
24. How do you select a transformer to operate in an ambient
higher than 40° centigrade?
When the ambient exceeds 40°C use the following chart for
de-rating standard transformers.
Maximum Ambient
Temperature

40°C (104°F)
50°C (122°F)
60°C (140°F)

84%

Instead of ordering custom built transformers to operate in
ambients higher than 40°C, it is more economical to use a
standard transformer of a larger kVA rating.

Section 1_0412.indd 8

25. Can transformers listed in this catalog be reconnected
as autotransformers to increase their kVA rating? Several
standard single phase transformers listed in this catalog can
be connected as autotransformers. The kVA capacity will
be greatly increased when used as an autotransformer,
in comparison to the nameplate kVA as an insulating
transformer. Examples of autotransformer applications are
changing 600 volts to 480 volts in either single phase or three
phase; changing 480 volts to 240 volts single or three phase
or vice versa; or the developing of a fourth wire (neutral) from
a 480 volt three phase three wire system for obtaining 277
volts single phase. This voltage is normally used for operating
fluorescent lamps or similar devices requiring 277 volts. For
further details showing kVA and voltage combinations for
various autotransformer connections refer to Page 30 and 31
in this catalog.
26. Are ACME Transformers shown in this catalog U.L.
Listed? All of the transformers, with few exceptions, are
listed by Underwriters’ Laboratories and have met their
rigorous requirements. We are also prepared to have
transformers, which are not presently listed, submitted for
listing to Underwriters’ upon the customer’s request. Please
contact the factory for details.
27. Is CSA certification available for transformers shown in
this catalog? Most ACME transformers shown in this catalog
are certified by Canadian Standards Association. They have
been designed and tested in accordance with the latest
specifications. Please contact the factory if further details
are required.
28. What is BIL and how does it apply to transformers listed
in this catalog?
BIL is an abbreviation for Basic Impulse Level. Impulse tests
are dielectric tests that consist of the application of a high
frequency steep wave front voltage between windings, and
between windings and ground. The Basic Impulse Level of
a transformer is a method of expressing the voltage surge
(lightning, switching surges, etc.) that a transformer will
tolerate without breakdown. All transformers manufactured
in this catalog, 600 volts and below, will withstand the NEMA
standard BIL rating, which is 10 KV. This assures the user
that he will not experience breakdowns when his system is
properly protected with lightning arrestors or similar surge
protection devices.
29. What is polarity, when associated with a transformer?
Polarity is the instantaneous voltage obtained from the primary
winding in relation to the secondary winding. Transformers 600
volts and below are normally connected in additive polarity —
that is, when tested the terminals of the high voltage and low
voltage windings on the left hand side are connected together,
refer to diagram below. This leaves one high voltage and

one low voltage terminal unconnected. When the transformer
is excited, the resultant voltage appearing across a
voltmeter will be the sum of the high and low voltage
windings. This is useful when connecting single phase
transformers in parallel for three phase operations. Polarity is a
term used only with single phase transformers.
30. What is exciting current? Exciting current, when
used in connection with transformers, is the current or amperes
required for excitation. The exciting current on most lighting
and power transformers varies from approximately 10% on
small sizes of about 1 kVA and smaller to approximately .5%
to 4% on larger sizes of 750 kVA. The exciting current is made
up of two components, one of which is a real component and
is in the form of losses or referred to as no load watts; the other
is in the form of reactive power and is referred to as kVAR.
31. Will a transformer change Three Phase to single phase?
A transformer will not act as a phase changing device when
attempting to change three phase to single phase. There
is no way that a transformer will take three phase in and
deliver single phase out while at the same time presenting
a balanced load to the three phase supply system. There
are, however, circuits available to change three phase to two
phase or vice versa using standard dual wound transformers.
Please contact the factory for two phase applications.
32. Can air cooled transformers be applied to motor loads?
This is an excellent application for air cooled transformers.
Even though the inrush or starting current is five to seven
times normal running current, the resultant lower voltage
caused by this momentary overloading is actually beneficial
in that a cushioning effect on motor starting is the result. The
tables on Pages 11 and 12 illustrate some typical transformer
requirements for use with motor applications.
33. How is an Acme Drive Isolation Transformer (DIT)
different than a General Purpose Tranformer?
DITs, as the name implies, are designed to be used with
motor drives (AC and DC) and to provide isolation from the
service line. They are specifically designed to withstand the
“short circuit like” duty imposed by the firing of the thyristors.
Harmonics generated by drives create added loads on the
transformer. Therefore, it is important that a transformer
of equal or greater kVA to that recommended by the drive
manufacturer be installed for a particular motor application.

voltage is low the torque and the horsepower of the motor
will drop proportionately to the square of the voltage. For
example: If the voltage were to drop to 70% of nominal, then
motor horsepower and torque would drop to 70 % squared
or 49% of the motor nameplate rating.
If the motor is used for starting a high torque load, the motor
may stay at approximately 50% of normal running speed as
illustrated by the graph below:

TORQUE (PERCENT OF FULL LOAD TORQUE)
SPEED vs TORQUE FOR A TYPICAL THREE PHASE
INDUCTION TYPE SQUIRREL CAGE MOTOR

The underlying problem is low voltage at the motor terminals.
If the ampere rating of the motor and transformer overcurrent
device falls within the motor’s 50% RPM draw requirements,
a problem is likely to develop. The overcurrent device may not
open under intermediate motor ampere loading conditions.
Overheating of the motor and/or transformer would occur,
possibly causing failure of either component.
This condition is more pronounced when one transformer is
used to power one motor and the running amperes of the
motor is in the vicinity of the full load ampere rating of the
transformer. The following precautions should be followed:
(1) When one transformer is used to operate one motor, the
running amperes of the motor should not exceed 65% of
the transformer’s full load ampere rating.
(2) If several motors are being operated from one transformer,
avoid having all motors start at the same time. If this is
impractical, then size the transformer so that the total
running current does not exceed 65% of the transformer’s
full load ampere rating.

NOTE: If motor is to be started more than once per hour add
20% additional kVA.

35. Why are Small Distribution Transformers not used for
Industrial Control Applications?
Industrial control equipment demands a momentary overload
capacity of three to eight times normal capacity. This is most
prevalent in solenoid or magnetic contactor applications where
inrush currents can be three to eight times as high as normal
sealed or holding currents but still maintain normal voltage at
this momentary overloaded condition. Distribution transformers
are designed for good regulation up to 100 percent loading,
but their output voltage will drop rapidly on momentary
overloads of this type making them unsuitable for high inrush
applications.

Care should be exercised in sizing a transformer for an
induction type squirrel cage motor as when it is started,
the lock rotor amperage is approximately 5 to 7 times the
running load amperage. This severe starting overload will
result in a drop of the transformer output voltage. When the

Industrial control transformers are designed especially
for maintaining a high degree of regulation even at eight
times normal load. This results in a larger and generally more
expensive transformer. For a complete listing of ACME
industrial control transformers, refer to Section V.

34. How are transformers sized to operate Three Phase
induction type squirrel cage motors? The minimum
transformer kVA rating required to operate a motor is
calculated as follows:

Minimum Transformer kVA =
Running Load Amperes x 1.73
x Motor Operating Voltage

36. Can 4-Winding Single Phase Transformer be autoconnected? Yes. There are occasions where 480 volts single
phase can be stepped down to 240 volts single phase by
autoconnecting a standard 4-winding isolating transformer
as shown in Figure 1. If connected in this manner, the
nameplate kVA is doubled. For example: A 10 kVA load can
be applied to a 5 kVA 4-winding transformer if connected per
Figure 1.

38. What is meant by “Balanced Loading” on Single Phase
Transformer applications? Since most single phase
transformers have a secondary voltage of 120/240, they will
be operated as a three wire system. Care must be taken
in properly distributing the load as the transformer secondary
consists of 2 separate 120 volt windings. Each 120 volt
winding is rated at one-half the nameplate kVA rating. For
example: A 10 kVA transformer, 120/240 volt secondary is to
service an 8 kVA load at 240 volts and two 1 kVA loads at
120 volts each.

37. What about balanced loading on Three Phases?
Each phase of a three phase transformer must be considered
as a single phase transformer when determining loading. For
example: A 45 kVA three phase transformer with a 208Y/120
volt secondary is to service 4 loads at 120 volts single phase
each. These loads are 10 kVA, 5 kVA, 8 kVA,and 4 kVA.

45 kVA = 15 kVA per phase

INCORRECT WAY:

If incorrect method is used, phase B will have an 18 kVA
load which is 3 kVA above its normal capacity of 15 kVA and
failure will result even though we only have a total load of 27
kVA on a 45 kVA transformer.

Type 1 Enclosures — are intended for indoor use,
primarily to provide a degree of protection against
contact with the enclosed equipment.
Type 2 Enclosures — are intended for indoor use,
primarily to provide a degree of protection against
limited amounts of falling water and dirt.
Type 3R Enclosures — are intended for outdoor use,
primarily to provide a degree of protection against falling rain, sleet and external ice formation.

If the incorrect method is used, winding A will be loaded
at 6 kVA, and winding B will be loaded at 4 kVA. These
do total 10 kVA but, since each winding is only rated at
5 kVA (1/2 of nameplate rating), we have an overloaded
transformer and a certain failure.

① When motor service factor is greater than 1,

Always use amps x volts to compute VA, never use lamp wattage. .156 kVA/
Fixture x 52 Fixture = 8.11 kVA. The two sizes (kVA) nearest 8.11 kVA are 7.5 kVA
and 10 kVA. Use the 10 kVA. This will not overload the transformer and allows some
capacity, 1.89 kVA, for future loads. Since the supply is 460 V (not 480 V) use
the 456 V tap. This will produce approximately 120 volts on output. If the tap is not
used, the output will be 115 V compared to the desired 120 V. Note the transformer selected is single phase but the supply is 480 V, 3 phase. Single phase is
obtained by using any 2 wires of the 3 phase supply.

increase full load amps proportionally.
Example: If service factor is 1.15, increase
above amp values by 15%.

1 Phase kVA = Volts x Amps

NOTE: If motors are started more than once per
hour, increase minimum transformer kVA by 20%.

Three Phase Example
Question: Select a transformer to fulfill the following conditions. Load is a three phase
induction motor, 25 horsepower @ 240 volts, 60 Hz and a heater load of 4 kilowatts @
240 volts single phase. The supply voltage is 480Y/277, three phase, 4 wire.
Answer: Compute the kVA required. Motor — From table 4 the current is 68 amps.
240 volts x 68 amps x 1.73 = 28.2 kVA
1000
(The kVA can also be obtained from table 4).
Heater — 4 kVA
A three phase transformer must be selected so that any one phase is not overloaded.
Each phase should have the additional 4 kVA rating required by the heater even though
the heater will operate on one phase only. So, the transformer should have a minimum
kVA rating of 28.2 + 4 + 4 + 4 or 40.2 kVA. Refer to the appropriate selection chart.
A 480 delta primary — 240 delta secondary transformer may be used on a 4 wire,
480Y/277 volt supply. The fourth wire (neutral) is not connected to the transformer. To
not overload the transformer, a 45 kVA transformer should be selected.
NOTE: Any two wires of the 240 volts, 3 phase developed by the secondary of the
transformer may be used to supply the heater. Any 2 wires of a 3 phase system is
single phase.

① Wall mounting brackets use PL-79911.
② If used on unbalanced loads, these units should only be used on a 4 wire
system with the supply neutral connected to the transformer. If used on
balanced loads, such as motor loads, then they may be used on a 3 wire
system without a neutral or 4th wire.

③ These units are encapsulated with a 115° C temperature rise.

HARMONIC MITIGATING TRANSFORMERS

Harmonic Mitigating Transformers
FEATURES
■

Unlike K-rated transformers, Harmonic Mitigating
transformers actually treat the triplen harmonics
in the secondary winding

■

Reduce supply voltage flat topping caused by
non-linear loads

■

Improve overall power factor of supply system

■

Suitable for K-Factor loads

■

Improved energy efficiency (Meet TP1 at K-1 load)

■

Copper conductor construction

APPLICATIONS
Many of today’s electronic devices are non-linear loads
generating high levels of harmonic currents that are then
fed back onto your distribution system. This waveform
distortion results in overheating of motors and transformers,
increased neutral currents and malfunction/damage to
other equipment on the line.
Acme Electric introduces a line of harmonic mitigating
transformers that combine the technologies shown in our
non-linear load (K-Factor) transformers. Where conventional
K-Factor transformers “deal” with harmonics, containing them
within the transformer and preventing them from going
further upstream; harmonic mitigating transformers eliminate
harmonics by pitting them against themselves. This technology not only results in “cleaner power” but also provides the
most energy efficient means to deal with harmonic problems.

DIMENSIONAL DRAWING

D

Available in sizes ranging from 30 thru 225 kVA, with copper
windings and a variety of other design options and accessories, Acme harmonic mitigating transformers offer you
reduced transformer heat, reduced voltage distortion due to
3rd order harmonics, higher efficiency.

Harmonic Mitigating Transformers – How do they work?
They consist of a Delta primary and a Zig-Zag secondary.
The Zig-Zag secondary causes a phase shift in the triplen
harmonics, which results in a canceling effect. This prevents

the triplen harmonic losses from being coupled back into
the primary and results in cooler operation and increased
energy efficiency.

The Acme Advantages
1. Acme utilizes special winding techniques and “foil”
conductors in both its K-Factor and Harmonic Mitigating
transformers to minimize the heating effects of harmonic
currents.

2. The use of foil conductor increases the dielectric strength
of the insulation because one layer is only one turn. Foil
also eliminates the effects of axial forces, which can result
in failure of wire wound transformers.

The following guide will help you select the proper
transformer when the K-factor is unknown.*

K-Factor/Type of Load
Non-linear loads generate high levels of harmonic currents. When
supplying power to these loads, a special transformer design is
necessary.
Typical non-linear loads include desktop computers, AC variable
speed drives, HID lighting, electronic ballasts, inverters and welders.
Of these non-linear loads, the major source of harmonic currents is
the switch mode power supply found in desktop computers, data
processors and other office equipment.
Acme non-linear load isolation transformers use special winding
techniques to minimize eddy current losses generated by
harmonic currents. A double-sized neutral conductor handles the
excessive neutral current found in non-linear load applications.
The amount of harmonics produced by a given load is represented by
the term “K” factor. The larger the “K” factor, the more
harmonics are present. Linear loads have a “K” factor of 1; switch
mode power supplies typically have a “K” factor as high as 20.
Acme non-linear load isolation transformers are shielded for cleaner
power and carry the Acme exclusive 10-year limited warranty.

NON-LINEAR LOAD ISOLATION® TRANSFORMERS

1. Linear loads

8. Voltage harmonic distortion (VHD)

Loads where the current waveform conforms to the waveform
of the applied voltage. Or loads where a change in current
is directly proportional to a change in applied voltage. For
example:

Voltage harmonic distortion is distortion caused by harmonic
currents flowing through the system impedance. The utility
power system has relatively low system impedance, and the
VHD is very low. But, VHD on the distribution power system
can be significant due to its relatively high system impedance.

• Resistance heating
• Incandescent lighting
• Water heater

9. Total harmonic distortion (THD)

2. Non-linear loads
Loads where the current waveform does not conform to the
waveform of the applied voltage. Or loads where a change in
current is not proportional to a change in applied voltage.
Examples are:
• Computer power supplies
• Motor drives
• Fluorescent lighting
Non-linear loads produce non-sinusoidal current or voltage
waveforms.

3. Sinusoidal current or voltage
This term refers to a periodic waveform that can be expressed
as the sine of a linear function of time.

4. Non-linear currents or voltages
A waveform of current or voltage which cannot be expressed
as the sine of a linear function of time. A non-linear load would
result in a non-sinusoidal current or voltage.

A sinusoidal waveform with a frequency that is an integral
multiple of the fundamental 60 Hz frequency.
Fundamental
2nd Harmonic
3rd Harmonic
4th Harmonic

11. Eddy currents
Currents flowing in a conducting material in the presence of a
time varying magnetic field. These currents are in addition to
the current drawn by the load.

12. Eddy current losses
Power dissipated due to eddy currents. Includes eddy current
losses in the core, windings, case and associated hardware of
a transformer.

A term used to express the difference
between the measured alternating current losses on a
transformer and the direct current (DC) losses (I2R). Stray
losses include eddy losses. Stray losses are usually
expressed as a percent of the direct current (DC) losses.

1: Percent value divided by 100.
2: The ratio of two components of a system.

6. Triplen harmonics
Odd multiples of the 3rd harmonic
(3rd, 9th, 15th, 21st, etc.).

7. Harmonic distortion
Non-linear distortion of a system
characterized by the appearance in the output of harmonic
currents (voltages) when the input is sinusoidal.

Section 3_0412.indd 42

1: The vector sum of the fundamental current and the total
harmonic distortion.
2: Square root of the sum of the squared value of the
fundamental current and the squared value of the total
harmonic distortion.

14. Per unit value

Current waveforms from non-linear loads appear distorted
because the non-linear waveform is the result of adding
harmonic components to the fundamental current.

42

10. Root mean squared current
(or voltage) RMS

13. Stray losses

5. Harmonic

60 Hz
120 Hz
180 Hz
240 Hz
etc.

The square root of the sum of the squares of all harmonic
currents present in the load excluding the 60 Hz fundamental.
It is usually expressed as a percent of the fundamental.

15. Harmonic spectrum “K” factor
The sum of the product of each harmonic current squared
and that harmonic number squared for all harmonics from
the fundamental (60 Hz) to the highest harmonic of any
measurable consequence. When the “K” factor is multiplied
by the stray losses of the transformer, the answer represents
the losses in the transformer caused by harmonic currents.
When these losses are added to the I2 R losses of the
transformer, the total load losses are known. The “K” factor for
a linear load without harmonics is one (1).

■

180°C and 220°C insulation systems.

Encapsulated and ventilated designs. All
ventilated units, are of strip wound construction.
Acme’s reinforced core assemblies enhance
quiet operation.

■

Nominally 6% impedance.

■

Designed for use with AC, adjustable frequency
or DC drives.

■

Full capacity taps are featured on all units. On
7.5 through 20 kVA units, taps are 1-5% ANFC
and 1-5% BNFC. On 27 through 660 kVA units,
1
1
taps are 2-2 /2 % ANFC and 2-2 /2 % BNFC.

■

DTGA72S

Full range of kVA ratings cover all standard
drive systems.

■

Ample wiring compartment for easy cable entry.

■

Optional wall mounting brackets for certain sizes.

Stress relief
Acme uses strip conductors (above 7.5 kVA)
instead of wire for a DIT series that easily
accommodates the severe electrical and
mechanical stresses found in today’s AC & DC
motor drives. The inherent excellent line isolation
of these transformers is further enhanced with
the extra protection of Acme’s Electrostatic
Shield — free in all DIT’s.

Lower losses
The harmonic currents generated by AC & DC
drives increase eddy current losses (heat) in
transformer windings. The thicker the winding
conductor, the greater the losses. Acme uses
one turn per layer of thin strip conductor which
provides lower eddy current losses than
comparable wire wound units. Lower losses =
cooler operation and longer transformer life.

Strip windings minimize axial

mechanical displacement of the
windings under fault conditions.
For extra protection all designs 7.5
kVA and above use primary and
secondary coils of equal axial length.
This feature tends to negate axial
short circuit forces, further improving
transformer life expectancy.

DRIVE ISOLATION TRANSFORMERS

Acme Advantages
Wound Cores and Strip
Winding mean lower losses

Copper terminations provide troublefree operation

All Acme DITs above 7.5 kVA are wound with strip windings
to ensure the lowest possible eddy current losses. All our
DITs use a three leg wound core. This superior design has
very low losses and quiet operation. Both of these features
combine to significantly reduce losses and operating costs
compared to other types of constructions.

All Acme DITs up to and including 220 kVA have copper
terminations. The transition from aluminum strip coil
conductors to copper terminations is accomplished by a
bonding process known as “Koldwelding™.” This process
has been used by Acme for over 25 years to provide a
trouble-free, permanent bonding of the two metals.

Thermal Switch Kit - PL-79900
Acme Thermal Switch Kits are designed for use with single and three phase
drive isolation and distribution transformers. Thermal switch kits are available
for a one or three sensor system.
Thermal sensors can be field or factory installed in the transformer winding
ducts to detect abnormal temperatures. The thermal sensors are a normally
closed contact that opens at 200°C ± 10°C and has a current capacity of 5
amps @ 120V or 2.5 amps @ 240V. This contact can activate any number of
different types of alarms or mechanisms that could warn of a potential failure.

AC LINE REACTORS

Applying Acme AC Line Reactors
Acme’s three-phase AC Line Reactors can be used as an input filter for adjustable speed DC drives and as input
or output filters for AC pulse width modulated variable frequency drives. They are bi-directional protective filtering
devices and can be applied in a variety of configurations.

Input to Inverter/Drive
AC Line Reactors protect your sensitive equipment from noise
generated by the drive or inverter. They protect the controller from
power surges, spikes and harmonic distortion.

Output of Inverter/Drive
Motors run cooler and quieter with an AC Line Reactor placed
between the inverter and motor. This application also reduces
dv/dt and protects the controller from short circuits and surges.

Multiple Controllers on a Single Power Line
Each drive or inverter on a single power line requires its own AC
Line Reactor in order to provide adequate surge protection, prevent
crosstalk and reduce harmonic distortion.

Multiple Motors Controlled by a Single Drive
Multiple motors controlled by a single drive require only one AC Line
Reactor between the controller and motors.

INDUSTRIAL CONTROL TRANSFORMERS

Selecting Industrial Control Transformers
To make the proper transformer selection,
the load must be completely analyzed...
which involves every electrically energized
component in the control circuit.
All electromagnetic control devices have
two current requirements; the first to
energize the coil; the second to maintain
the contact for a definite period of time.
The initial energizing of the coil, which
takes 5 to 20 milliseconds, requires many
times more current than normal. This is
referred to as volt-ampere inrush... which
is immediately followed by the sealed voltamperes—the amount of current required
to hold the contact in the circuit.

Easy, five step selection
1. Determine the voltage and frequency
of supply circuit: Example: 460 Volts,
60 Hz.
2. Determine the total inrush VA of the
control circuits from the manufacturer’s
data or the contactor data table. Do not
neglect the current requirements of
indicating lights and timing devices
that do not have an inrush VA but are
energized at the same time as the
other components in the circuit. Their
total VA should be added to the total
inrush VA.
3. Refer to the regulation data chart.
If the supply circuit voltage (Step 1)
is reasonably stable and fluctuates
no more than ± 5%, refer to the
90% Secondary Voltage column. If
it fluctuates as much as ± 10%, refer to
the 95% Secondary Voltage column.
Go down the column you have selected
until you arrive at the inrush VA closest
to, but not less than, the inrush VA of
your control circuit.
4. Read to the far left side of the chart
and you have selected the continuous
nominal VA rating of the transformer
needed. The secondary voltage that
will be delivered under inrush conditions
will be either 85%, 90%, or 95% of the
rated secondary voltage—depending
on the column selected from the
regulation data chart. The total sealed
VA of the control circuit must not exceed
the nominal VA rating of the transformer
selected from the manufacturer’s data
or the contactor’s data table.

designed to accommodate the momentary current
inrush caused when electromagnetic components
are energized... without sacrificing secondary
voltage stability beyond practical limits.
Acme Industrial Control Transformers are
dry-type, step-down transformers with the
secondary control circuit isolated from the primary
line circuit to assure maximum safety.

TAINDUSTRIAL
SERIES OPEN CORE
CONTROL
& COIL TRANSFORMERS
INDUSTRIAL CONTROL TRANSFORMERS

Industrial Control Transformers for
Harsh Environments
Designed for Control Panels where Internal
Installation of Control Transformers is prohibited.
Some specifications require installation of large control transformers, usually 1000 to
5000 VA outside the control cabinet. This means the transformer must be in a sheet
metal enclosure instead of the usual open core and coil construction method.
Acme meets this need by providing all of the power, protection, regulation and
performance of our standard industrial control transformers in one UL -3R enclosure.
These transformers are wound with copper magnet wire, deliver full nameplate
capacity, and provide the high regulation required in control applications.
Voltage combinations available are: 240 x 480V primary, 120V secondary and
240/480/600V primary, 120/100V secondary. Ratings available are 1000, 2000, 3000
and 5000 VA. All units are UL listed, CSA certified, and covered by Acme’s exclusive
10-year limited warranty.

CE Marking

FEATURES

(Conformité Européene)
The CE Marking, standing for Conformité Européene, is a European Mark of
conformity indicating that a product or system to which it is applied, complies
with European law (Directives) regulating a necessary level of protection in
Europe with respect to safety, health, environmental and consumer protection;
however, it is not intended as a guarantee of quality for the consumer. The CE
Marking must be applied to products being placed on the European market.
The CE Marking does allow a product to be moved freely within the internal
market of the European Union.

Section 5_0412.indd 76

The Directives that apply to Control or Power Distribution Transformers are:

The stringent testing required to obtain a third party certification mark in many
cases is significantly more rigid than domestic requirements. This ensures that
not only the Acme FINGER/GUARD® product, but all of
our CE Marked products are designed to meet a higher
level of safety standards than non-CE Marked products.
All Acme transformers are manufactured in a facility
certified by Underwriters Laboratories to ISO-9001.

Buck-Boost Transformers
The No-Frills Low
Voltage Lighting
Buck-Boost Transformers offer a nofrills approach to low voltage lighting.
(See Chart Below) A typical BuckBoost application is 120 volts in and
12 volts out for low voltage lighting or
control circuitry. In most applications,
this low voltage isolation transformer
is field connected as an autotransformer. For more information on BuckBoost Transformers, refer to the next

BUCK-BOOST TRANSFORMERS

Where Are Buck-Boost
Transformers Used?
A typical buck-boost application is 120 volts in, 12
volts out for low voltage lighting or control circuitry. In
most applications, this low voltage transformer is field
connected as an autotransformer. (See question 2 for the
definition of an autotransformer). Buck-boost transformers
provide tremendous capabilities and flexibility in kVA
sizes and input/output voltage combinations. Basically
you get 75 different transformers... all in one
convenient package.
Other buck-boost applications are, where (A) low supply
voltage exists because equipment is installed at the end
of a bus system; (B) the supply system is operating at or
over its design capacity; and (C) where overall consumer
demands may be so high the utility cuts back the supply
voltage to the consumer causing a “brownout.”
T211688

Why Use Buck-Boost Instead of
Another Type Transformer ?
Take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of
using a buck-boost transformer (autotransformer)
compared to a standard isolation transformer of the
proper size and voltage combination.
As you can see, the advantages are many, the
economies great. Buck- boost transformers are
readily available from the stock of your nearest Power
Distribution Products Distributor.

Proper Voltage Is Critical
With nearly two-thirds of all electrical loads being A.C. motor
loads, maintenance of the proper voltage to that motor is very
important. If the supply line voltage is not maintained, motor
winding current is increased causing reduced motor torque and
escalating motor temperature, all of which results in the rapid
loss of insulation life expectancy.
In addition to motor loads, the detrimental effects of low voltage
on both resistive heating loads and incandescent lighting
output is illustrated in the chart.
Anytime you have a lower than standard voltage, equipment
damage and failure can result.
Buck-boost transformers are an economical way to correct
this potentially very serious problem. Anytime a line voltage
change in the 5-20% range is required, a buck-boost
transformer should be considered as your first line of defense.

Questions & Answers About Buck-Boost Transformers
1. What is a buck-boost transformer?
Buck-boost transformers are small single phase transformers
designed to reduce (buck) or raise (boost) line voltage from
5 -20%. The most common example is boosting 208 volts to
230 volts, usually to operate a 230 volt motor such as an airconditioner compressor, from a 208 volt supply line.
Buck-boosts are a standard type of single phase distribution
transformers, with primary voltages of 120, 240 or 480 volts
and secondaries typically of 12, 16, 24, 32 or 48 volts. They
are available in sizes ranging from 50 volt amperes to 10
kilo-volt amperes.

2. How does a buck-boost transformer differ from an
insulating transformer?
A buck-boost transformer IS an insulating type transformer
when it is shipped from the factory. When it is connected at
the job site, a lead wire on the primary is connected to a lead
wire on the secondary – thereby changing the transformer’s
electrical characteristics to those of an autotransformer. The
primary and secondary windings are no longer “insulated”
and secondary windings are no longer “insulated” and its kVA
capacity is greatly increased. Refer to figures 1, 2 and 3.

Buck-boost transformers are shipped ready to be connected
for a number of possible voltage combinations.

BUCK-BOOST TRANSFORMERS

3. What is the difference between a buckboost transformer and an autotransformer?
When a primary lead wire and secondary lead wire of a buckboost transformer are connected together electrically, in a
recommended voltage bucking or boosting connection, the
transformer is in all respects, an autotransformer. However,
if the interconnection between the primary and secondary
winding is not made, then the unit is an insulating type
transformer.

Applications
4. Why are they used?
Electrical and electronic equipment is designed to operate on standard supply voltage. When the supply voltage is
constantly too high or too low, (usually more than 55%), the
equipment fails to operate at maximum efficiency. A buck
and boost transformer is a simple and ECONOMICAL means
of correcting this off-standard voltage.
5. What are the most common applications
for buck-boost transformers?
Boosting 208V to 230V or 240V and vice versa for commercial and industrial air conditioning systems; boosting 110V to
120V and 240V to 277V for lighting systems; voltage correction for heating systems and induction motors of all types.
Many applications exist where supply voltages are constantly
above or below normal.
6. Can buck-boost transformers be used to
power low voltage circuits?
Yes, low voltage control, lighting circuits, or other low voltage
applications requiring either 12V, 16V, 24V, 32V or 48V. The
unit is connected as an insulating transformer and the nameplate kVA rating is the transformer’s capacity.

Operation and Construction
7. Why do buck-boost transformers have 4
windings?
To make them versatile! A four winding buck-boost transformer
(2 primary and 2 secondary windings) can be connected
eight different ways to provide a multitude of voltage and kVA
outputs. A two winding (1 primary & 1 secondary) buck-boost
transformer can be connected only one way.
8. Will a buck-boost transformer
stabilize voltage?
No. The output voltage is a function of the input voltage. If the
input voltage varies, then the output voltage will also vary by
the same percentage.

Load Data
9. Are there any restrictions on the type
of load that can be operated from a
buck-boost transformer?
No, there are no restrictions.
10. Why can a buck-boost transformer
operate a kVA load many times larger than the
kVA rating on its nameplate?
Since the transformer has been auto-connected in such a
fashion that the 22V secondary voltage is added to the 208V
primary voltage, it produces 230V output.
The autotransformer kVA is calculated:
kVA = Output Volts x Secondary Amps
1000
kVA = 230 V x 41.67 Amps = 9.58 kVA
1000

The picture to the left illustrates the difference in physical size between
the autotransformer of 1 kVA, capable of handling a 9.58 kVA load, and
an isolation transformer capable of handling a 7.5 kVA load.
To cite an example... a model T111683 buck-boost transformer has a
nameplate kVA rating of 1 kVA, but when it’s connected as an autotransformer boosting 208V to 230V, its kVA capacity increases to 9.58 kVA.
The key to understanding the operation of buck-boost transformers lies
in the fact that the secondary windings are the only parts of the transformer that do the work of transforming voltage and current. In the example
above, only 22 volts are being transformed (boosted) — i.e. 208V + 22V
= 230V. This 22V transformation is carried out by the secondary windings
which are designed to operate at a maximum current of 41.67 amps
(determined by wire size of windings).

BUCK-BOOST TRANSFORMERS

11. Can buck-boost transformers be used
on motor loads?
Yes, either single or three phase. Refer to the motor data
charts in Section I for determining kVA and Amps required by
NEMA standard motors.
12. How are single phase and three phase load
Amps and load kVA calculated?
Single phase Amps = kVA x 1000
Volts
Three phase Amps = kVA x 1000
Volts x 1.73
Single phase kVA = Volts x Amps
1000

Connection and Frequency
16. How does the installer or user know how
to connect a buck-boost transformer?
The connection chart packed with each unit shows how to
make the appropriate connections. These same connection
charts are also shown in this section (page 118).
17. Can 60 Hertz buck-boost transformers
be used on a 50 Hertz service?
No. Acme buck-boost transformers should be operated only at
the frequencies recommended. However, units recommended
for 50 cycle operation are suitable for 60 cycle operation but
not vice versa.

Selection

Three phase kVA = Volts x Amps x 1.73
1000

Three-Phase
13. Can buck-boost transformers be used
on three-phase systems as well as single phase
systems?
Yes. A single unit is used to buck or boost single phase
voltage — two or three units are used to buck or boost three
phase voltage. The number of units to be used in a three phase installation depends on the number of wires in the
supply line. If the three-phase supply is 4 wire Y, use three
buck-boost transformers. If the 3 -phase supply is 3 wire Y
(neutral not available), use two buck-boost transformers.
Refer to three-phase selection charts.
14. Should buck-boost transformers be used
to develop a three-phase 4 wire Y circuit from a
three-phase 3 wire delta circuit?
No. A three phase “wye” buck-boost transformer connection
should be used only on a 4 wire source of supply. A delta to
wye connection does not provide adequate current capacity to
accommodate unbalanced currents flowing in the neutral wire
of the 4 wire circuit.

15. Why isn’t a closed delta buck-boost
connection recommended?
A closed delta buck-boost auto transformer connection
requires more transformer kVA than a “wye” or open delta
connection and phase shifting occurs on the output.
Consequently the closed delta connection is more
expensive and electrically inferior to other three-phase
connections.

18. How do you select a buck-boost
transformer?
Refer to the selection steps on page 101 for easy 4-step
selection, then go to the charts. Also, pages 12 and 13 are
helpful for determining buck-boost kVA when only the H.P.
rating of a motor is available.

Nameplate Data
19. Why are buck-boost transformers
shipped from the factory as insulating
transformers and not preconnected at the factory
as autotransformers?
A four winding buck-boost transformer can be auto connected
eight different ways to provide a multitude of voltage and
kVA output combinations. The proper transformer connection
depends on the user’s supply voltage, load voltage and load
kVA. Consequently, it is more feasible for the manufacturer to
ship the unit as an insulating transformer and allow the user
to connect it on the job site in accordance with the available
supply voltage and requirements of his load.
20. Why is the isolation transformer kVA
rating shown on the nameplate instead of the
autotransformer kVA rating?
The kVA rating of a buck-boost transformer when auto
connected depends on the amount of voltage buck or boost.
Since the amount of voltage buck or boost is different for
each connection, it is physically impossible to show all of the
various voltage combinations and attainable kVA ratings on the
nameplate. A connection chart showing the various attainable
single phase and three-phase connections is packed with
each unit.

Safety
21. Do buck-boost transformers present a safety
hazard usually associated with autotransformers?
No. Most autotransformers, if they are not of the buck-boost
variety, change voltage from one voltage class to another.
(Example 480V to 240V) In a system where one line is
grounded, the user thinks he has 240V; yet due to the primary
and secondary being tied together, it is possible to have 480V
to ground from the 240V output. A buck-boost transformer only
changes the voltage a small amount, such as 208V to 240V.
This small increase does not represent a safety hazard, as
compared to a buck of 480V to 240V. Refer to Figure on the
following page.

BUCK-BOOST TRANSFORMERS
An autotransformer changes or transforms only a portion of
the electrical energy it transmits. The rest of the electrical
energy flows directly through the electrical connections
between the primary and secondary. An isolation transformer
(insulating transformer) changes or transforms all of the
electrical energy it transmits.

(POTENTIAL SAFETY
HAZARD)

Consequently, an autotransformer is smaller, lighter in weight,
and less costly than a comparable kVA size insulating
transformer.

Sound Levels
22. Are buck-boost transformers as quiet as
standard isolation transformers?
Yes. However, an auto-connected buck-boost transformer will
be quieter than an isolation transformer capable of handling
the same load. The isolation transformer would have to be
physically larger than the buck-boost transformer, and small
transformers are quieter than larger ones. (Example) 1 kVA —
40 db; 75 kVA — 50 db. (db is a unit of sound measure).

Cost and Life Expectancy
23. How does the cost of a buck-boost
transformer compare to that of an insulating
transformer — both capable of handling the same
load?
For the most common buck-boost applications, the dollar
savings are generally greater than 75% compared to the use
of an insulating type distribution transformer for the same
application.

Please refer to Question 27 for additional information on autotransformers.
Buck-boost transformers are frequently field-connected as
autotransformers.
26. Buck-boost transformers are almost
always installed as auto-transformers. Does the
N.E.C. (National Electrical Code) permit
the use of autotransformers?
Yes. Please refer to N.E.C. Article 450-4, “Autotransformers
600 Volts, Nominal, or Less.” Item (a) explains how to
overcurrent protect an autotransformer; item (b) explains that
an insulating transformer such as a buck-boost transformer
may be field connected as an autotransformer.

24. What is the life expectancy of a buck
boost transformer?
The life expectancy of a buck-boost transformer is the same
as the life expectancy of other dry type transformers.

27. When a buck-boost transformer is
connected as an autotransformer such as
boosting 208V to 230V, the kVA is greatly
increased. What is the procedure for determining
the size (ampere rating) of the overcurrent
protective device such as a fuse or circuit
breaker?
The National Electrical Code Article 450-4 addresses
overcurrent protection of autotransformers. A copy is
reproduced below for easy reference.

National Electrical Code

450-4. Autotransformers 600 Volts, Nominal, or Less.

25. Your catalog indicates that a buck-boost
transformer is suitable for connecting as an
AUTOTRANS-FORMER. What is the definition of
an autotransformer and how does it differ from an
isolation transformer?
An autotransformer is a transformer in which the primary
(input) and the secondary (output) are electrically connected
to each other. An isolation transformer, also known as an
insulating transformer, has complete electrical separation
between the primary (input) and the secondary (output). This
is illustrated in the drawing below.

(a) Overcurrent Protection. Each autotransformer 600
volts, nominal, or less shall be protected by an individual
overcurrent device installed in series with each ungrounded
input conductor. Such overcurrent device shall be rated or
set at not more than 125 percent of the rated full-load input
current of the autotransformer. An overcurrent device shall
not be installed in series with the shunt winding (the winding
common to both the input and the output circuits) of the
autotransformer between Points A and B as shown in Diagram
450-4.

BUCK-BOOST TRANSFORMERS

Exception: Where the rated input current of an
autotransformer is 9 amperes or more and 125 percent of this
current does not correspond to a standard rating of a fuse or
non-adjustable circuit breaker, the next higher standard
rating described in Section 240-6 shall be permitted. When
the rated input current is less than 9 amperes, an overcurrent
device rated or set at not more than 167 percent of the input
current shall be permitted.

When this 1 kVA unit is connected as an autotransformer for
this voltage combination, its kVA rating is increased to 9.58 kVA
(may also be expressed as 9,580 VA). This is the rating to
be used for determining the full load input amps and the
sizing of the overcurrent protect device (fuse or breaker) on
the input.

(b) Transformer Field-Connected as an Autotransformer.
A transformer field-connected as an autotransformer shall
be identified for use at elevated voltage.

9,580 Volt Amps = 46 Amps
208 Volts

28. I have noted the reprint of the N.E.C.
(National Electrical Code), Article 450-4 shown in
the previous question covering autotransformer
overcurrent protection. Could you explain this
article in detail by citing an example?
An example of an everyday application is always a good
way to explain the intent of the “Code.” Example: A 1 kVA
transformer Catalog No. T111683 has a primary of 120 x
240V and a secondary of 12 x 24V. It is to be connected as an
autotransformer at the time of installation to raise 208V to
230V single phase.

Full Load Input Amps =

When the full load current is greater than 9 amps, the
overcurrent protective device (usually a fuse or nonadjustable breaker) amp rating can be up to 125 percent of
the full load rating of the autotransformer input amps.
Max. amp rating of the
overcurrent device
= 46 amps x 125% = 57.5 amps
The National Electrical Code, Article 450-4 (a) Exception,
permits the use of the next higher standard ampere rating of
the overcurrent device. This is shown in Article 240-6 of the
N.E.C.
Max. size of the fuse or circuit breaker
= 60 amps

Steps for Selecting the Proper Buck-Boost Transformer
You should have the following information before selecting
a buck-boost transformer.
Line Voltage — The voltage that you want to buck (decrease)
or boost (increase). This can be found by measuring the
supply line voltage with a voltmeter.
Load Voltage — The voltage at which your equipment is
designed to operate. This is listed on the nameplate of the
load equipment.
Load kVA or Load Amps — You do not need to know both
— one or the other is sufficient for selection purposes. This
information usually can be found on the nameplate of the
equipment that you want to operate.
Frequency — The supply line frequency must be the same as
the frequency of the equipment to be operated — either 50 or
60 cycles.
Phase — The supply line should be the same as the
equipment to be operated — either single or three phase.

Four Step Selection
1. A series of LINE VOLTAGE and LOAD
VOLTAGE combinations are listed across the top of
each selection chart. Select a LINE VOLTAGE and LOAD
VOLTAGE combination from ANY of the charts that comes
closest to matching the LINE VOLTAGE and LOAD
VOLTAGE of your application.
2. Read down the column you have selected until you reach
either the LOAD kVA or LOAD AMPS of the equipment you
want to operate. You probably will not find the exact value of
LOAD kVA or LOAD AMPS so go to the next higher rating.
3. From this point, read across the column to the far lefthand side and you have found the catalog number of
the exact buck-boost transformer you need. Refer to the
catalog number listing on page 103 for dimensions.
4. CONNECT the transformer according to the connection
diagram specified at the bottom of the column where you
selected YOUR LINE VOLTAGE and LOAD VOLTAGE
combination. Connection diagrams are found at the end of
this section.
This same connection information is packed with each
buck-boost transformer.

① See chart on page 101, for number of leads per termination.
NOTE: Inputs and Outputs may be reversed; kVA capacity remains constant. All applications above bold face line are suitable for 50/60 Hz. All applications below bold
face line are suitable for 60 Hz only.
With larger kVA buck-boost units, it is necessary to utilize multiple conductors on the secondary (X) terminals as shown in the chart on page 101.

PANEL-TRAN® ZONE POWER CENTERS

UL-3R Enclosures All Panel-Tran® enclosures are UL-3R
listed for indoor and outdoor use.
Transformer Assembly Acme totally encapsulated
distribution transformers are designed for general purpose
indoor/outdoor operation. Panel-Tran® can be installed in a
wide variety of atmospheric and environmental conditions. A
180°C, UL recognized insulation system is used.
Panel-Tran® units are electrostatically shielded to provide
transient voltage protection at no extra cost.
Panel Assembly The power panel assembly will
accommodate one-inch, 1, 2 or 3-pole, common trip, duplex
secondary branch circuit breakers and ground fault circuit
breakers. Per UL and NEC requirements, the Panel-Tran®
assembly comes fully equipped with primary and secondary
main circuit breakers. Branch circuit breakers should be
obtained from our local distributor once you have established
your branch circuit requirements.
Panel-Tran® — Why? Panel-Tran® eliminates the normal
tangled masses of secondary circuit feeders and gives your
industrial/commercial distribution systems new flexibility. Use
your high voltage bus to full advantage by putting power where
the problem is. Reduce cost — save space — keep flexible.
Panel-Tran — Where? Anywhere 120, 208 or 240 volt
branch circuits are required. Typically, Panel-Tran® is best
applied in situations similar to the following: Powering foreman
centers, vending machine areas, factory test set- ups, office
buildings, mining applications, assembly lines, portable or
temporary power sources, parking lots, small machine setups, light industrial areas, warehouses, and numerous other
locations. Use where your branch circuits may require future
change or expansion.
®

UL Listed Panel-Tran® has been listed by Underwriters’
Laboratories for both indoor and outdoor operation under their
unit substation classification, file number E-56936. In addition,
Panel-Tran® is UL listed as suitable for use as Service Entrance
Equipment.
Meets The NEC Panel-Tran® fully complies with Article
450-3 of the latest edition of the NEC.
Protection A primary main breaker protects the transformer
and acts as a disconnect device. This primary main breaker
has a high interrupting capacity to handle fault conditions. A
secondary main breaker, between the transformer and the
panel, is required by the N.E.C.
Branch Circuits Typical 1" snap in circuit breakers, regular
or duplex, must be field installed. They are not provided with
the Panel-Tran® unit. A secondary ground is provided within
the wiring compartment for accepting your branch unit. All of
the breakers, including the primary main, secondary main,
and branch circuit breakers are located in the lower section of
the Panel-Tran®. This lower section is protected by a hinged,
removable front cover which can be padlocked for safety.
Recommended Branch Breakers We suggest using
branch breakers of the same manufacture as the panel in
Panel-Tran®. Please contact the factory for the proper branch
breaker recommendation.
Acme reserves the right to change breaker and panel
manufacturers without notification.
Connections All Panel-Tran® connections will accept
copper or aluminum conductor.

AIR CONDITIONING, REFRIGERATION & APPLIANCE TRANSFORMERS

Air Conditioning, Refrigeration & Appliance Transformers
The transformers in this section are autotransformers
designed to change a wide range of voltages to the standard
motor voltages for domestic appliances, air conditioners,
and related equipment.
Correcting high or low supply voltage conditions to match
the voltage requirements of appliances and equipment aids
in safe, efficient operation.
These Acme autotransformers change or correct offstandard voltage that may be the result of:
1. Line supply voltage not matching the appliance motor
nameplate voltage, (e.g., supply voltage is 380Y/220V,
three phase, four wire. Appliance motor operates on 110 V,
single phase. See schematic).

are suitable for 50/60 Hz (cycle) service, they are
applicable in export trade where it is necessary to change
to a standard voltage for appliance operation.
These transformers are capable of adjusting voltage
only; they can’t change the frequency of a supply circuit.
However, in most instances, 60 Hz (cycle) equipment
can be operated from a 50 Hz supply if the voltage is
reduced approximately 8 -10%. For example, 115 V, 60 Hz
equipment can usually be operated on 50 Hz at 105 V.
Some common uses for Acme Air Conditioning, Refrigeration
and Appliance transformers include adjustment of offstandard voltage to the nominal voltages required to
operate:
a) Air conditioners, television receivers, all home
appliances.

2. Low voltage due to inadequate wiring capacity in the
electrical distribution system.

b) Hermetically sealed refrigeration motors.

3. Low voltage caused by distribution of power over a
long distance.

c) Individual machine lighting, tool post grinders, fans,
convenience outlets for portable lights, power tools.

4. High or low voltages supplied by the utility company.

d) Magnetic contactors, relays, AC motors and similar
devices requiring large starting (inrush) currents.

Standard voltages and frequencies (Hz) vary throughout
many countries of the world. Since these autotransformers

Construction Features
Acme appliance transformers are autotransformers. The input
(primary) winding is in electrical series connection with the
output (secondary) winding; the input and output are not
electrically isolated.

All units are constructed of core lamination processed
from annealed electrical grade silicon steel. This improves
transformer efficiency by keeping heat losses at a
minimum.

The autotransformer principle is the most economical for
appliance applications, since only the difference between
input voltage and output voltage is transformed. This results
in smaller size, reduced weight and lower cost.

Coils are precision machine wound and hand finished.
The core and coil combination is impregnated with electrical
grade varnish, then heat cured. This provides cool
operation and protects the transformer from moisture and
contamination. The result is long transformer life.

AIR CONDITIONING, REFRIGERATION & APPLIANCE TRANSFORMERS

The transformers in this section will not cause harmonic
distortion to voltage or current wave shape.

All units are manufactured and tested in accordance with
National Electrical Manufacturers Association standards.

All transformers in Group C are equipped with a SAFETY
grounding feature on both the input and output side.

Some groups are equipped with primary voltage taps which
correct for voltage conditions constantly above or below the
nominal rating of the supply.

Connection for ground may be made through lead wires or
through plug and receptacle combinations where installed.

Selection Steps
1. Determine the value of incoming line supply voltage and
frequency (50 or 60 Hz).

3. Add all VA requirements of equipment to obtain total
load. (All components must be of same voltage rating).

2. Find the appliance or load equipment voltage rating and
amperes from the nameplate or instruction sheet. Multiply
the two to obtain VA requirement of the load. If the power
requirements are listed only in watts, consider this the
same as VA. (Exception: electric discharge lighting such
as mercury vapor, fluorescent, etc. should always be
sized by volts x amps (VA). If only wattage ratings are
known, double this requirement to obtain VA ratings of
transformers needed).

4. Add 10% for high starting current and overloading to
obtain VA size of transformers.
5. Select transformer from charts on following pages using
combination of supply voltage (primary), voltage rating of
equipment (secondary), load VA rating, and type of
connections desired.

CONSTANT VOLTAGE REGULATORS & POWER LINE CONDITIONERS

Acme® True-Power ® Power Line Conditioners
The average computer installation, representing mini-computer,
workstations or personal computers, experiences an average of
100 power disturbances each month. These disturbances can
cause equipment malfunction, loss of memory and inaccurate
data, and in the worst cases complete failure of these delicate
electronic devices. Computer installation manuals recommend
dedicated service lines, but these are expensive to install, offer
minimal future flexibility and do not provide total protection of
the equipment. Acme offers a complete line of Power Protection
Equipment. Refer to the “Product Selection Guide” for the product
that best meets your requirements.
Note: This section of the general catalog contains complete
specification and selection information on Acme’s True-Power®
power line conditioners.

Acme True-Power® products consist of speciality designed ferroresonant transformers. Although ferroresonant transformers have
been an economical solution to power problems for many years, it
took the skills of Acme’s highly regarded engineering staff to refine
it to meet today’s exacting requirements.
For example, typical ferroresonant transformers have an input
limited to 100 -130 V. Acme’s True -Power ® units have an input
range of +10/-20% around input voltage nominals of 120/208/240
and 480 volts. At 120 volt input, this relates to 95-130 volts.
The typical ferroresonant transformer has limited electrical noise
suppression capability. True-Power® power line conditioners have
the following noise attenuation capability:
Common Mode: 120 db
Transverse Mode: 60 db
The typical ferroresonant transformer has an audible hum that
can be objectionable in most offices. Acme’s True-Power® power
line conditioners are encapsulated in epoxy to lower sound levels
below ANSI standard C 89.2.

DM SERIES DIN-RAIL MOUNTED POWER SUPPLIES

DIN-Rail Mounted Power Supplies
DM Series 0.6 to 20 Amps
Acme’s new flagship line of DM Series
DC power supplies are an innovative
solution to a vast array of control
applications. Designed to provide
optimal performance with a minimal
impact on installation time and space.
Currently available in single phase
models (three phase coming soon)
from 0.6 to 20 Amps (15-480 watts)
these new power supplies provide the
convenience of DIN-rail mounting up
to 10 Amp for a toolless installation
and the versatility of a standard auto-ranging input to cover the
most applications with the fewest models. The slim profile greatly
reduces the amount of space taken up on the DIN-rail and within
the overall control cabinet. The fully enclosed design is touch proof
and CE compliant to meet international specifications. All units are
UL 508 listed and can be used at full-rated power.

Redundancy Applications
For critical load applications
redundancy may be required
All the DM Series power supplies can be connected in
parallel for redundancy, so if one power supply fails, there
is adequate power reserve in the remaining unit to continue
supporting the critical load (Reference Figure 1).

DC POWER SUPPLIES

Frequently Asked Questions
Q What is a power supply and what does it do?
A A power supply is an electronic device that converts AC line power to
one or more individual DC outputs.

Q What is remote sensing?
A Remote sensing is a method of moving the point of regulation
from the output terminals to the load.

Q What is an unregulated power supply and where are they used?
A An unregulated power supply provides DC voltage for applications
that do not require close tolerance DC output regulation. Typical
applications for unregulated power supplies are DC motors, relays,
and solenoids.

Q Why should the sense terminals be connected in either local or
remote?
A If the sense leads are not connected, this could cause the output
voltage to go high. If the output has over-voltage protection, the
output will shut down.

Q What is a regulated linear DC power supply and where are they used?
A This is a power supply that, through additional circuitry,series pass
transistors and linear IC’s; provides a regulated, low noise DC voltage.
Typical applications are IC’s, micro-processors, keyboards and disc
drives.

Q Are there any special considerations that provisions must be made for
when remote sensing?
A Yes, when remote sensing is used, the sense leads must be as
short as possible and twisted to avoid picking up stray noise.

Q How are the input connections made on linears?
A All of the linear power supplies offered require the AC input to be
connected directly to the transformer.
Q How are the output connections made on linears?
A All of the output connections on the linears are via solder barrett
terminals. The linears require the customer to solder directly to
the turret terminals.
Q What is a switching power supply?
A This is a supply which converts the AC source to a high voltage
(typically 350 VDC). This high voltage is used in turning on and off
power switching transistors or MOSFETs to produce a DC current
and voltage. The high voltage and high switching frequency (20 KHz
to 100 KHz) allows a switchmode power supply to be more efficient.
That is, it needs less AC current to produce equivalent DC current than
a linear power supply, resulting in less heat and a smaller package.
Q Can power supplies be operated at line frequencies other than 60 Hz?
A Yes, the Standard Power line of DC power supplies operates on 50 to
60 Hz.
Q What is efficiency?
A Efficiency is the ratio of the output power to input power. It is
generally measured at full load and nominal line conditions and
expressed as a percentage.
Q What is overvoltage protection (OVP)?
A Overvoltage protection is a protection mechanism for the load
circuitry that prevents the output voltage from exceeding a
preset limit.

Q What is foldback current limit?
A Foldback current limit is a protective circuit of the power supply
output. The foldback current limit is preset at 120% of the rated
output current of the supply. If this output value is exceeded, the
circuit folds back the current so that only 40% of the rated current is
delivered. This prevents the power supply from trying to deliver
more than it is capable of and overheating.
Q If the current limit foldback is activated, does the power supply
have to be manually reset?
A No, the unit will reset automatically.
Q What would be some possible causes of a power supply overheating?
A A. Outputs overloaded.
B. Poor ventilation.
C. Improper connection on primary side of transformer.
D. AC input voltage too high.
E. Power supply is running at full load in an environment that
exceeds temperature specs. The power supply should be derated.
Q What are floating outputs?
A Floating outputs are outputs on the supply that do not share a
common return which enable the user to switch polarities.
Q What is switching frequency?
A Switching frequency is the rate at which the high source voltage is
switched in a switching regulator.
Q What is the switching frequency of Standard Power switchers?
A 20 to 100 KHz.

Q If a switcher’s output shuts down the overvoltage protection
circuit, can the unit turn on by itself?
A No, you must manually re-cycle (turn off, then turn on) the AC
input power.

Q What is meant by the adjustment range of the output of a power
supply?
A The adjustment range is how much the output of the supply can be
adjusted or changed from its rated output. This is expressed as a
percentage and is accomplished through the use of a potentiometer.

Q Do all power supplies require an AC ground?
A Yes, all AC input connections require a ground. On the switching
power supplies, the ground is provided on the AC barrier strip or
chassis. Linear power supplies have AC grounding directly on the
transformer or chassis.

Q What is ripple?
A Ripple or PARD, as it is sometimes referred to, is the Periodic and
Random Deviation of the output voltage. This is usually noise
induced from other sources.

Q Can a power supply be loaded according to its wattage rating alone?
A No, each output on a power supply is rated for voltage and current.
The power supply is selected for each application according to the
voltage and current requirements.
Q What is meant by regulation in a power supply?
A Regulation is the change in value of DC output voltage resulting
from a change in either the output’s load or the AC line voltage.
Q What is a regulator?
A The regulator is the part of the power supply that controls the
output voltage level when there is a change in the line or load.
128

SECTION 11_0412.indd 128

Q What is hold-up time?
A Hold-up time is the total time an output will remain within its
regulation after the input line voltage has been turned off.
Q What is the mean time between failure (MTBF)?
A The MTBF is the parameter used to compare the reliabilities of
power supplies. It is expressed in hours.
Q Are UL designations acceptable everywhere?
A Not necessarily. There are similar agencies all over the world, but
their specifications for safety vary. Many of Standard Power’s
products are certified to CSA and CE licensed by TUV for IEC and
VDE.

POWERWISE C3 TRANSFORMER

A New Standard in Transformer Efficiency
In January 2007, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005) set the minimum
efficiency level (TP1) for transformers. While this standard sets a minimum
performance level, transformers rated at TP1 do not provide the greatest
efficiency or offer the lowest life cycle cost.
Acme POWERWISE C3 transformers are 30% better performing in efficiency
than standard TP1 transformers. Thanks to a more efficient core and highergrade electrical steel that minimizes losses, these energy-efficient units even
exceed the requirements of the US Department of Energy Candidate Standard
Level (CSL) 3 performance standard, commonly referred to as “C3.”
Depending on the kVA size, this increase in efficiency can save thousands of
dollars in energy costs per transformer. Whether you are looking to upgrade
your older pre-TP1 transformers or specify the highest-efficiency transformers
on your new project, Acme POWERWISE C3 transformers can deliver the
power and performance you need.

Within a typical facility, increasing the efficiency of your transformers can provide significant savings in a short period of time.
Payback usually occurs within 2.5 to 3.5 years, thanks in large part to our no-load losses. Because no-load losses are present
even when the transformers are lightly loaded, they are critical to overall efficiency — and POWERWISE losses are up to 40%
less than traditional TP1 designs.

EVALUATING TOTAL COST OF OWNERSHIP
Total Cost of Ownership = Initial Cost + Yearly Energy Cost
Cost over the life of the installation should be the most important factor when deciding which technology to use. Since the typical
transformer lasts 25 to 30 years, the total life cycle cost far outweighs the initial purchase price of the transformer. The electricity
wasted by low initial-cost transformers can amount to millions of wasted kilowatt hours over the operational life of the installation.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES & BENEFITS
■

Exceeds US DOE CSL-3 efficiency to help you reduce
electrical waste and provide sustainability in your
electrical design

■

Significantly exceeds TP1 efficiency for low operating
cost over the life of the transformer

■

Optimized design provides maximum reliability and
proven performance

■

and rigorous testing standards

constructed to ANSI/IEEE Standards and is UL
and CSA listed.

ENVIRONMENTAL EFFICIENCY
Acme POWERWISE transformers are the most efficient
commercially available transformers. Because they
generate lower losses, they reduce power drawn from
generating stations, resulting in lower greenhouse gas
emissions and less smog. The result is a win for the
environment and a win in terms of lowest transformer
life cycle costs.

WARRANTY
Acme POWERWISE C3 transformers are subjected to
rigorous quality electrical and insulation tests in our
ISO 9001-certified facility, and they are backed by our
25-year pro-rated warranty.

Thermal Switch Kits
Acme Thermal Switch Kits are designed for use with single and three
phase drive isolation and distribution transformers. Thermal switch kits
are available for one or three sensor systems.
Thermal sensors can be field or factory installed in the transformer
winding ducts to detect abnormal temperatures. The thermal sensors
are a normally closed contact that opens at 200°C ± 10°C and has a
current capacity of 5 amps @ 120V or 2.5 amps @ 240V. This contact
can activate any number of different types of alarms or mechanisms
that could warn of a potential failure.

① % of rated current (or next higher standard rating).
② In cases where the secondary is overcurrent protected, the primary overcurrent
protection rating can be no more than 250% (2.5 times) full load amps (shown on
above chart). For example, if a 10 kVA, single phase transformer has a 480V primary
and a 120/240 secondary, and the secondary is overcurrent protected, maximum
primary overcurrent protection rating is 20.8 amps (full load current) x 2.5 (250%) =
52. Therefore, use a standard 50 amp fuse or breaker selected from NEC Section
240-6 (below).

Section 240-6 of the 1999 National Electrical Code. The standard ampere ratings
for fuses and inverse time circuit breakers shall be considered 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40,
45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500,

General Purpose Transformers
For over eighty-eight years, Acme Electric has been manufacturing Power Conditioning Equipment for use
in industrial, commercial and OEM applications. Built on a reputation for superior service, quality and
technical expertise in the transformer market, Acme is regarded as a true industry leader.

Dry Type General Purpose Transformers

Harmonic Mitigating Transformers

Acme Electric is a full line manufacturer of low voltage (600V
and below) dry type distribution transformers using both copper
and aluminum conductor, offering an array of products between
0.05 -1000 KVA.

Harmonic currents can sometimes cause equipment to
malfunction, motors to burn out, circuit breakers to trip, and
fuses to blow. In such a case, there is an advantage to specifying
a transformer that treats the harmonic anomalies versus simply
tolerating them. Acme’s Harmonic Mitigating Transformers offer
the best solution for combating harmonics associated with nonlinear loads.

All Acme products are designed, constructed and rated to
meet or exceed the standards established by NEMA, ANSI and
IEEE. With few exceptions, all ACME transformers are
UL Listed.

K-Factor Transformers
Non-sinusoidal harmonic currents are created by much of
today’s electronic equipment. In fact, the switch mode power
supply found in desktop computers, data processors and other
office equipment is a major source of harmonic currents. Other
sources include electronic ballasts, variable frequency drives,
heating controls and rectifier circuits.
These non-linear loads can cause the transformer’s neutral
conductor to overheat, requiring special transformer design.
Acme’s non-linear load isolation transformers use special
winding techniques to minimize the eddy current losses
generated by harmonic currents. A double-sized neutral
conductor handles the excessive neutral current found in
non-linear load applications, preventing the transformer
from overheating.

These foil wound transformers will, by nature, be smaller, more
efficient, and have lower eddy current losses than their wire
wound counterparts. Acme’s Harmonic Mitigating Transformers
utilize a time proven zig-zag connection in the secondary circuit
that results in a phase shift of the triplen harmonics and causes
them to cancel one another. This technology not only results in
cooler operation and “cleaner power”, but also provides a more
energy efficient means of dealing with harmonic problems.

CSL-3 / NEMA Premium Transformers
The Acme POWERWISE C3 sets a new standard for
efficiency and reliability. Due to the use of more efficient core
material and higher-grade electrical steel, POWERWISE C3
transformers are the most efficient commercially available
transformers. With a 30% increase in efficiency performance
over standard TP-1 transformers, these energy-efficient units
exceed the requirements of the US Department of Energy
Candidate Standard Level (CSL) 3 performance standard.
POWERWISE C3 transformers achieve the lowest life cycle
costs by reducing annual energy costs. Depending on the size
of the transformer, this can mean thousands of dollars saved
per transformer. And, because they generate lower losses, they
reduce power drawn from generating stations, resulting in lower
greenhouse gas emissions and less smog.
Acme POWERWISE C3 transformers are copper wound,
3-phase common-core, dry-type ventilated isolation
transformers. Each transformer is meticulously constructed
to ANSI/IEEE Standards and is UL and CSA listed. The
POWERWISE C3 transformer is a perfect choice for K
through 12, college, university, healthcare, governmental and
commercial buildings where the total life cycle cost of the
facility and its electrical system is a priority.
