Isolation Transformer 2. Features The isolation transformer eliminates any electrical continuity between AC shore power and the vessel. It is essential for safety and eliminates the need for galvanic isolators and polarity alarms. 2.1. Electrical safety Electrical safety is taken for granted in the case of a standard on-shore installation. A circuit breaker will trip, or a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) will trip in case of a short circuit or a current leakage to ground. -

(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 (not included for the 2000W model). 1x short yellow/green jumper wire with female 6.35 mm spade connectors, used to make AC output neutral (N) to earth (PE) link. -
Page 8: Ac Input Configuration
Isolation Transformer 3.3. AC Input configuration The AC input needs to be configured for 115 or 230V use. This is done by connecting male spade terminals using the black jumper wires (included). These terminals are located above the AC input connector. Connect AC input jumper cable... -

Isolation Transformer Connect Connections AC output jumper cable voltage between J29 and J32 115V J31 and J25 230V J31 and J32 3.5. Connecting AC input and AC output Shock hazard. Do not work on the isolation transformer or the electrical system if still connected to an electrical power source. -
Page 10: Ac Output Neutral To Earth Link
To link the AC output neutral (N) to earth (PE), place a green/yellow jumper wire (included) between the J33 and J21 male spade connectors. AC output neutral (N) to earth (PE) link. 3.7. Cable cross-section requirements Use the following minimal cable cross-sections: Isolation transformer power rating Voltage Metric 2000W 115V 2.5mm² AWG 13 2000W 230V 1.5mm² AWG 16... -

Isolation Transformer 3.8. Wiring example Wiring example isolation transformer installed on a vessel connected to shore power. Description Shore power. Circuit breaker. GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter). Shore cable. Isolation transformer. AC loads. 3.9. Linking input and output earth when the vessel is out of the water. For safety reasons, when the vessel is out of the water (on land) during winter or for maintenance, the vessel's earth (PE) conductor must be connected directly to the shore power earth (PE) conductor. -

Isolation Transformer 4. Operation Check the input and output voltage configuration before operating the isolation transformer. 4.1. Inrush current limiter The inrush current limiter prevents upstream circuit breakers from tripping when switching on the isolation transformer. 4.2. Temperature protection The isolation transformer is fan cooled. The fan speed is temperature-controlled. Its speed (rpm) will increase if the temperature increases. -
