MGM provides buck-boost transformers as a simple and economical way to correct off-standard voltages in sizes up to 10 kVA. When the supply voltage is constantly too high or too low, (usually more than 55%), the equipment fails to operate at maximum efficiency. Buck Boosts are most commonly used for 240V equipment in a facility with 208V service or vice versa.
Buck Boost transformers are used in a number of different applications including lighting, motors, pumps, HVAC and circuit control.
Standard features for Buck Boost transformers include:
- Ratings from 50VA to 10,000VA
- 50/60 Hz frequency
- Encapsulated core & coils in a combination silica sand and resin compound
- Insulation system: 115¡C rise
- UL listed & CSA certified
- Three standard voltage groups:

3 PHASE SYSTEMS
A single unit is used to buck or boost single phase voltage Ñ however two or three units can be used to buck or boost three phase voltage.Ê
The number of units to be used in a three-phase installation depends on the number of wires in the supply line. If the three-phase supply is 4 wire Y, use three buck-boost transformers. If the 3-phase supply is 3 wire Y (neutral not available), use two buck-boost transformers.
Please reach out to an MGM representative to understand how to use our Single Phase units in a Three Phase application.
