I bought this Chinese made step up transformer to run some 220v appliances. Some of the wires were brittle and broke off. I attempted to improve some of the wiring with spade terminals and heatshrink tubing as the wires were just soldered straight to the connectors. Any advice on how to rewire the broken wires on this step up transformer? I'm unsure how to go about rewiring this to a better safe working condition.

i would hardwire the input voltage and do away with that switch.
the usb is a stupid addition
what country plugs are you going to plug into this?
those universal 220v sockets are great for quick tests but they arent ideal for longterm use.
they can be a bit questionable with some plugs.
btw, you have 230v in your panel - you could have just wired a 230v socket to the panel by adding a couple of 10A or 16A breakers.

Hello Community,
I'm attempting to repair the SMPS on a Levoit 600S air purifier. The transformer is likely open. It has six pins. 2 pairs on the primary side (one pair tested open) and 1pair of legs on the secondary side. Legs on the secondary side are spread wide apart (end-to-end). I've circled them in blue. Dimentons of the transformer are 22x23mm. Marking on the transformer are EE16 1.9mH-B. Fuse for the powerboard is fuse 250V 3.15A. I've been unable to find an exact match and I'm hoping for some help here to find a suitable replacment.
Peace

Hi
(not sure if this is the right place to post this but couldnt see anywhere else)
I Have a very old battery charger which was given to me - it is 6v/12v 10amp.
It is in like new condition and even in the origonal box - it works fine but is very noisey (buzzing)
It buzzes as soon as its turned on even with no load on it.
It appears to be the transformer thats making the noise.
Can anything be done apart from find a new transformer?
(Have attached a picture and a small video of the noise)
Thanks... -
Hello!
I'm looking at an original Xbox PSU: Foxlink ftps-0002 rev. B. The 12 V output is too low, and the 5 V output is too (?) high. Unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope but only a DMM for diagnosis.
Measured voltages with no load:
After rectifier diodes
12V: 6.17 V
5V: 5.67 V
Secondary transformer pins AC measurement (really don't know if this says anything)
12V: 2-2.5 V
5V: 1.04 V
I also have another (working) Xbox psu from Delta. The same measures there, in order, being: 10.79,... -
Hi all,
Got this local made DC power supply (12/14V) given free as the transformer has melted. There is no marking or indication to identify what type or rating of transformer used.
Fyi,. I had a busted autogate mainboard with transformer with marking 13-0-13 . Is this the 13v dc type transformer?
My questions are
1. How do i test to see if the transformer is in good working condition?
2. Can this transformer (marking 13-0-13) be used to replace the melted transformer on the DC power supply?
Hope you guys understand what i was asking. My intention is... -
Hello All,
i would like to post an interesting topic regarding 3-phase stepdown transformer which we suspect to cause an overcurrent (138A) which resulted to power tripped off of the HV power supply (80KV output).
Problem statement: Power tripped Off
Initial Problem: Found 2 IGBT and 2 rectifier diodes shorted (burnt).
Action Done:
1) Replaced the faulty parts with good spare.
2) Measured impedance of the 3phase input lines and found that L2 to L3 has 23.3ohm while other pairs are 51Kohm. This pins will...
