ETE XMS300P5S6 Class II Enclosed Safety Transformer 300VA 0/415V to 0/24V

Why Choose the ETE XMS300P5S6 300 VA Class II Enclosed Safety/Isolating Transformer?

The ETE XMS300P5S6 is a 300 VA single-phase Class II enclosed safety/isolating transformer designed to provide a nominal 24 V AC secondary supply from a 415 V AC primary input. Part of the ETE XMS transformer series, it combines Class II electrical construction, an integral moulded housing and chassis mounting for industrial control panels, machinery and automation equipment.

Featuring 0/415 V primary terminals and 0/24 V secondary terminals, the XMS300P5S6 provides dedicated AC voltage transformation for compatible low-voltage industrial control circuits. Its Class II construction incorporates protective insulation arrangements, while its safety/isolating transformer design provides electrical separation between the primary and secondary circuits. This makes it a practical choice for installations requiring an enclosed transformer with a defined 415 V to 24 V AC voltage configuration.

The XMS300P5S6 is specified for chassis mounting only, allowing installation on a suitably supported equipment mounting surface. With Class F insulation, dimensions of 126 × 136 × 127 mm and a weight of 5 kg, it offers electrical panel builders, OEM machinery manufacturers and maintenance engineers a practical solution for supplying compatible 24 V AC control equipment.

Reliable Class II 24 V AC Control Power for Industrial Automation

The ETE XMS300P5S6 provides a straightforward method of transforming a nominal 415 V AC primary supply into a 24 V AC secondary supply. Its 300 VA rated capacity makes it suitable for compatible industrial control equipment where the combined apparent power demand remains within the transformer's rating. Typical loads may include AC control relays, contactor coils, signalling devices and other electrical equipment designed for 24 V AC operation.

A key feature of the XMS300P5S6 is its Class II electrical construction. Class II equipment incorporates protective insulation arrangements designed to provide protection against electric shock without relying on a protective earth connection for its protective insulation system. The transformer's safety/isolating designation provides electrical separation between the primary and secondary circuits, supporting appropriately engineered low-voltage control power installations. Class II electrical construction is distinct from the transformer's Class F thermal insulation rating.

The integral moulded housing provides an enclosed transformer format, while the specified chassis-only mounting arrangement allows the unit to be installed on a suitable equipment mounting surface. Unlike smaller XMS models that may offer DIN rail installation, the XMS300P5S6 must be chassis mounted. The mounting surface and fixings should be suitable for its 5 kg weight and the conditions of the installation.

At its rated capacity, the calculated nominal secondary current is approximately 12.5 A at 24 V AC. This figure is derived from the 300 VA rating and nominal output voltage rather than a separately verified manufacturer current rating. The calculated ideal primary current is approximately 0.72 A at 415 V AC, excluding transformer losses and magnetising current. Suitable primary and secondary circuit protection, conductor sizing, ventilation and electrical clearances remain essential for dependable operation.

When selecting a transformer for control circuits containing contactors, solenoids or other inductive devices, both the continuous load and any short-duration inrush demand should be considered. The transformer's 300 VA rating alone does not establish its permissible short-duration inrush capability, so the complete load profile should be checked against the manufacturer's installation and application guidance.
