black or black and white wires, which are factory-installed.
• Connect 120 V (ac) hot (L) to the black (L) wire on the transformer.
• Connect 120 V (ac) neutral (N) to the white or opposite black (N) wire on the transformer.
Low Voltage Side:
• The low voltage terminals have male spade connectors and are labelled R and C.
• Connect the red lead (with the in-line fuse) provided with the Transformer 009 to the R spade connector on the secondary
side of the transformer. The fuse is rated at 250 V (ac) 2.0 A slow-blow type.
• Connect the black lead provided with the 009 to the C spade connector on the secondary side of the transformer.

Sizing the Transformer Load
When sizing a transformer it is important to know the load that it will be operating. Transformers are sized based on the VA
(Volt X Amps) power that they can provide. Use the sizing chart below to calculate the required VA. The tekmar Transformer
009 can supply a total of 40 VA. If the load exceeds 40 VA, a larger transformer is required.
