5kVA Portable Transformer

A tough transformer which can be used with larger corded power tools such as SDS drills, demolition hammers, mixer drills, 9" angle grinders, jigsaws and circular saws. Suitable other products such as site lights, industrial fans, multiple dehumidifiers and fume extractors.

Input mains lead with bare ends (no plug), for hardwiring or a connector of choice (max current 23A).

1) If using the transformer up to its 2.5kVA continuous rating, supply current needed is 12A. Therefore, fitting a 13A UK domestic plug is permissible, alternatively a 16A (230V) industrial plug.
2) However, if using the transformer up to its maximum 5.0kVA intermittent rating, supply current needed is 23A. This far exceeds 13A mains output. Recommend 32A (230V) industrial plug (or other suitably rated plug). Alternatively hard wire direct to a suitable fused spur electrical point.
