Why Choose the ETE MV300P2S1 300 VA Multi-Voltage Control Transformer?

The ETE MV300P2S1 is a 300 VA single-phase multi-voltage control transformer designed for industrial electrical panels, machinery control systems and automation equipment requiring a nominal 55 V AC or 110 V AC secondary supply. Manufactured by Eastern Transformers & Equipment (ETE), this model belongs to the MV Multi-Voltage Series and provides flexible primary and secondary voltage connections for industrial applications.

Featuring 20/0/380/420 V primary terminals and 0/55/110 V secondary terminals, the MV300P2S1 accommodates the manufacturer's specified primary supply configurations and offers selectable 55 V or 110 V output taps. The secondary winding also provides a centre-tapped arrangement suitable for appropriately designed industrial control circuits.

With a 300 VA rated capacity, Class E insulation and 8% voltage regulation, this transformer is suitable for appropriately sized industrial control loads. It measures 120 × 100 × 120 mm, weighs 4.7 kg and has specified enclosure references of EPH 3 or EPN 2.

Important: The primary terminal arrangement incorporates a 20 V adjustment tap. Confirm the exact adjustment tap connections with ETE before installation or energisation.

Multi-Voltage Primary Connections and 20 V Adjustment Tap

The ETE MV300P2S1 features a 20/0/380/420 V primary terminal arrangement intended for the manufacturer's specified industrial AC supply configurations. This makes it useful for electrical panel builders working with machinery and control systems designed around nominal 380 V or 420 V primary connections.

The primary winding also incorporates a 20 V adjustment tap. The precise relationship between the adjustment terminal and the other primary connections must be established using ETE's approved wiring diagram. The terminal markings alone should not be used to infer an unverified voltage correction method.

Installation requirement: Confirm the correct primary connections, including the 20 V adjustment tap, with ETE before energising the transformer. Incorrect connections may result in unintended secondary voltages, excessive winding excitation or equipment damage.

Selectable 55 V and 110 V AC Secondary Connections

The MV300P2S1 incorporates 0/55/110 V secondary terminals, allowing the installer to select a nominal 55 V AC or 110 V AC connection according to the required control circuit voltage.

110 V AC Secondary Output

Using the full 110 V secondary winding, the 300 VA rating corresponds to a calculated nominal output current of approximately 2.73 A. This configuration is suited to appropriately rated 110 V AC control circuits, including industrial contactors, relays and switching equipment.

55 V AC Secondary Tap

The intermediate secondary terminal provides a nominal 55 V AC connection. This can be useful for compatible low-voltage AC control equipment and centre-tapped control circuit arrangements.

Although dividing 300 VA by 55 V gives a theoretical current of approximately 5.45 A, this does not establish the permissible loading of the 55 V tap. The manufacturer must confirm the allowable half-winding current and any simultaneous loading restrictions before the circuit is designed.

The specified 8% voltage regulation should be considered when selecting voltage-sensitive devices, particularly where contactor inrush currents or changing control loads may affect the secondary voltage.

Industrial Construction and Installation Considerations

The ETE MV300P2S1 has dimensions of 120 mm length × 100 mm width × 120 mm height and weighs 4.7 kg. Its construction is intended for installation in appropriately designed electrical panels and machinery control cabinets.

The ETE MV range incorporates IP20 touch-proof terminals, Class H varnish impregnation and a protective core earth connection. The range is designed to EN 61558-1 for continuous-rated control circuit operation, with an ambient temperature range of −10 to +35 °C. The MV300P2S1 has Class E insulation.

For this 300 VA model, ETE specifies enclosure references EPH 3 or EPN 2. The installation should provide adequate mounting support, ventilation, appropriate primary and secondary circuit protection, conductor sizing and protective earthing.

Transformer selection should account for both steady-state load and any short-duration inrush requirements of connected control equipment. The manufacturer's terminal diagram must be followed for the primary adjustment tap and secondary voltage selection.
