European isolation transformer, this model does not comply with ABYC standard 11.7.1.3 regarding shield fault current but complies with appropriate European standards Accepts 50 or 60 Hz inputs in 120 or 230 volt configurations and can be used as a step up or step down transformer as well as a straight through isolation transformer.
The isolation transformer ships with the following items:
Description
1x hanging bracket, used for mounting the isolation transformer inside a vessel.
1x isolation transformer.
1x long yellow/green jumper wire with female 6.35 mm spade connectors, used to connect AC input earth (PE) to AC output earth (PE) when the vessel is out of the water for maintenance or winter storage.
1x long yellow/green wire with eye terminals, used for case grounding.
1x short yellow/green jumper wire with female 6.35 mm spade connectors, used to make AC output neutral (N) to earth (PE) link.
4x short black jumper wires with 6.35 mm female spade connectors, used for AC configuration.

The isolation transformer converts the input voltage with a 1:1.05 ratio. The 1:1.05 transformer ratio boosts the output voltage of the isolation transformer by 5%. This is to compensate for shore power voltage drops that are a common occurrence in marinas.
The isolation transformer can be used in 115V or 230V systems and also be used to convert 230V to 120V and 115V to 240V. Depending on the isolation transformer configuration:
A 230V input becomes 240V.
A 230V input becomes 120V.
A 115V input becomes 240V.
A 115V input becomes 120V.
The isolation transformer can be used in 50Hz or 60Hz systems. However, the isolation transformer cannot convert frequencies from 50Hz to 60Hz or vice versa.
