Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What does the "12-0-12" configuration signify?
A: It indicates a center-tapped secondary winding, providing two 12V AC outputs relative to the center tap, or a single 24V AC output across the outer terminals.

Q: Can this transformer be used to power DC circuits?
A: No, this transformer provides an AC output. For DC applications, a rectifier and filter circuit must be added to the secondary output.

Q: What is the maximum current output for this transformer?
A: The transformer is rated for a maximum output current of 1 Ampere (1000mA) on its secondary winding.

Q: Is this transformer suitable for 110V AC input?
A: No, this transformer is designed for a 230V AC input voltage. Using it with 110V AC will result in a lower than specified output voltage.
