FAQs

The N29M28F4516 is a three-phase transformer with a 208 V primary and 208Y/120 V secondary, designed for floor or wall mounting in upright orientation. Grounding should follow local electrical codes and Eaton installation guidelines; connect the winding terminals per the 283A wiring configuration, and ensure proper enclosure clearance and venting for safe operation.
Key specs include 45 kVA, 60 Hz operation, 208 V input, 208Y/120 V output, aluminum windings, and a shielded design with electrostatic shield. The K-Factor 13 rating indicates enhanced protection against harmonic currents, improving voltage quality under nonlinear loads, reducing overheating risk, and extending transformer life in drives and rectifier-heavy systems.
Yes. With a rugged NEMA 2 enclosure, 45 kVA three-phase capability, and shielded construction, it supports manufacturing floors, control rooms, and panel boards. The 208V to 208Y/120V output configuration and voltage-tap options help maintain stable voltage for motors, PLCs, and data-center ancillary power while meeting DOE efficiency targets.
The N29M28F4516 is UL Listed and compliant with DOE 2016 Efficient standards (10 CFR Part 431). These certifications help ensure safety, energy efficiency, and regulatory alignment for industrial installations, while enabling easier compliance reporting and potential utility incentives.
Maintenance focuses on periodic inspection of enclosure integrity, cooling paths, and terminal connections. Aluminum windings and a shielded design reduce thermal stress and EMI, contributing to longer life and lower replacement costs. Energy efficiency under DOE 2016 standards lowers operating expenses, delivering improved ROI over conventional ventilated transformers in demanding loads.
