FAQs
The S48N11S15CU is designed for commercial and light industrial control panels requiring a 15 kVA, single-phase transformer with 480 V primary and 120/240 V secondary. Its encapsulated copper-windings and NEMA 3R enclosure support reliable operation in indoor or outdoor equipment rooms, simplifying panel design and reducing enclosure diversity in assemblies.
This transformer operates at 60 Hz, single-phase, with a 480 V primary and 120/240 V secondary, rated for 15 kVA. Copper windings provide high conductivity, and the unit features a 115 °C rise rating to indicate thermal performance under full-load conditions. The wiring is compatible with a 524H connection schema for standard panel integration.
Yes. The unit is built with an indoor-outdoor concept and a NEMA 3R enclosure suited for outdoor installations, backed by Weathershield capabilities. UL Listed certification further supports safe outdoor operation, while the robust copper-winding design maintains reliability in challenging environments.
The S48N11S15CU is UL Listed, ensuring industry-standard safety compliance. It features a rugged NEMA 3R enclosure suitable for indoor-outdoor use and is designed for 60 Hz single-phase applications in typical commercial and light-industrial power-distribution scenarios.
Maintenance is typically limited to periodic inspections of enclosure integrity and connections; copper windings reduce corrosion risk, and the encapsulated design minimizes dust ingress. With a one-year warranty (or 18 months from shipment) and UL-listed safety, owners can expect predictable uptime, reduced replacement costs, and a favorable total cost of ownership in controlled environments.
