1.0 INTRODUCTION
The T240 Autotransformer is designed to step-up 120 volt AC to 240 volt AC
or to step-down 240 volt AC into two 120 volt AC circuits. The T240 contains
two identical windings that can be used to step-up, step-down, or balance the
output voltage of an AC power source (such as an inverter, generator or
conventional AC source) to an AC load. The unit is sized to take advantage of
Trace Engineerings inverter/charger line. The exceptionally high efficiency of
the T240 Autotransformer makes it ideal for voltage conversion from an inverter,
generator or conventional AC source.
The T240 Autotransformer utilizes a highly-efficiency transformer constructed
of high temperature materials and M-6 grade steel laminations, meeting UL
Class-H standards.
The unit is housed in a powder coated, steel enclosure, suitable for indoor
installations and contains knockouts for 3/4 inch and 1 inch conduit connections
and additional breakers. One 25 amp dual breaker is supplied with the T240.
Up to six additional Square D QOU breakers can be added for additional input/
output wiring protection and control.

Mounting
Place the T240 Autotransformer in a convenient location, close to the input
source (inverter, generator or utility). The T240 must be mounted horizontally
on a flat surface (such as a wall) in a clean, dry environment. Do not mount the
autotransformer where it will be exposed to the weather or in a wet location.
NOTE: The T240 weighs approximately 50 pounds. Use appropriate wall
anchors or backing material (plywood, 2 x 4s, etc.) that will support its weight.
Procedure:
Use a level and mark the location for mounting the unit on the wall.
Measure out the four mounting screw holes according to Figure 3.
Drill out the mounting holes using a #18 (0.170 inch) drill bit.
Remove the front cover of the autotransformer by removing the four
Phillips screws. Do not lose the screws!
Use a #10 x 3/8 (or 1/2) inch long screw and washer (and appropriate
anchors if necessary) and mount the autotransformer securely to the wall
or backing material (plywood, 2 x 4s, etc.).
Remove the appropriate knockouts for the conduit. Install the conduit
between the autotransformer and input source (inverter, generator, etc.)
and output to load. Use separate conduit for input and output wiring.

WARNING: WIRING SHOULD BE PERFORMED ONLY BY QUALIFIED
PERSONS.
WARNING: BEFORE WIRING THE AUTOTRANSFORMER, ENSURE THAT
ALL SOURCES OF POWER ARE DISCONNECTED. NEVER WORK ON A
LIVE CIRCUIT.
CAUTION: THE CONFIGURATION OF THE AUTOTRANSFORMER IS FOR
STEP-UP, STEP-DOWN OR CURRENT BALANCING. IT DOES NOT
PROVIDE ISOLATION BETWEEN INPUT AND OUTPUT. DO NOT USE THE
AUTOTRANSFORMER AS AN ISOLATION DEVICE.
NOTE: All source connections (inverter, generator or utility) are connected to
the left-hand side of the installed circuit breaker (see illustrations). All loads
connect to the service crimp on the right-hand side of the breaker.
Service Crimps
The service crimps provide a convenient means to connect the
autotransformer. Do not use the screw terminals on the breakers for making
connections. Do not remove factory wiring.
Pull back the insulation on the TRANSFORMER wire so it is exposed
inside the service crimp.
Strip off approximately 1/2 inch of the insulation from the wire to be
installed and insert the bare wire into the crimp.
Slide the crimp up to the circuit breaker terminal as far as it will go.
Place the wire in the crimp and ensure the existing wires insulation is fully
exposed. Torque the crimp screw to 45 inch/pounds.
After torquing, ensure the service crimp is tight on both wires and is not
able to twist or be moved.
CAUTION: UNUSED SERVICE CRIMPS SHOULD BE TIGHTENED TO THE
EXISTING WIRE AND TAPED, SO IT CAN NOT SHORT TO OTHER
TERMINALS OR THE CASE.

240 Volt AC Source120 Volt AC to Loads (Step-down Configuration)
This configuration allows a 120 volt AC load to be supplied from a
120/240 volt AC input source such as a utility grid. The voltage output of the
autotransformer halves (from 240 to 120 volts AC) and the total output current
available for the 120 volt AC output doubles. This arrangement is useful for
splitting the current of a battery charger between each leg of the 240 volt AC
source, reducing losses in the wiring. This is especially important in long cable
runs or when charging from a 120/240 volt AC output generator.
240 Volt AC Input (source)
Connect the L1 AC HOT wire (from the utility grid) to point A on the
lower breaker as shown in Figure 10.
Connect the L2 AC HOT wire (from the utility grid) to point C on the
upper breaker as shown in Figure 10.
Connect the neutral wire (from the utility grid) to the NEUTRAL block
in the autotransformer.
Connect the ground wire (from the utility) to the GROUND block in the
autotransformer.

Step-down Connection of Stacked-pair Inverters
The T240 can also be used to step down the voltage from a stacked pair of
DR or SW Series inverters. In this configuration, the neutral of the inverters
must be isolated from the neutral block of the T240 Autotransformer, or the
inverters may over-current trip when they synchronize to an AC generator. This
configuration may not be in compliance with the NEC. Consult your local and
national electrical codes for requirements. This configuration provides double
the output current at 120 volts AC.
Procedure
Inverter Inputs to T240
Connect the HOT output of Inverter #1 to point A on the lower
breaker.
Connect the HOT output of Inverter #2 to point C on the upper
breaker.
Connect the ground wire from the inverters to the GROUND block in
the T240.
T240 Output to 120 Volt AC Load
Connect the ground wire from the load to the GROUND block in the
T240.
Connect the neutral wire from the load to the NEUTRAL block in the
T240.
Connect the HOT wire (120 volt AC) from the load to the service
crimp on lower breaker (point B).

Generator Output Balancing Autotransformer
Single 120 Volt AC Load
This configuration allows the 120/240 volt AC generator output to be
equally divided (balanced) between its L1 and L2 outputs. In this example, the
generator is using both its L1 and L2 outputs to supply a high current 120 volt
AC load. Balancing the generator in this way improves generator performance
and life, plus results in higher battery charge rates.
Procedure
Connect the L1 output of the generator to the lower breaker (point A).
Connect the L2 output of the generator to the upper breaker (point C).
Connect the ground wire from the generator to the T240 GROUND block.
Connect the neutral wire from the generator to the T240 NEUTRAL block.
Connect the inverters 120 volt AC input to the service crimp on the lower
breaker (point B).
Connect a ground wire from the inverter to the GROUND block in the
T240.
Connect a neutral wire from the inverter to the NEUTRAL block in the
T240 .
Follow the instructions for wiring the inverter to the loads as specified in
the inverters operation manual.

Generator Output Balancing (single 120 volt AC load)
NOTE: The ability of the T240 to balance the load depends upon the generators
windings and voltage regulation it receives on each leg. If the voltages are not
equal, or if there are other loads on the legs, then the currents in each leg will not
be equal.
To absolutely equal the load, disconnect the neutral connection of the T240 to the
generator. This un-bonds the output neutral from ground. This neutral should be
considered as a HOT wire and treated as such. This configuration may not be
compliant with the NEC, but will balance the load on the 240 volt AC side.
