Appleton E050WA Control Transformer 50VA 240-120V

Product Description

The APPLETON E050WA is a 50 VA control transformer designed to step down line voltage to a safe control-circuit level for industrial and commercial electrical systems. It accepts dual primary voltages of 240 and 480 volts and delivers a 120-volt secondary output, making it well suited for powering low-voltage control circuits in motor control centers, panel boards, and automated equipment. Licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians install this transformer as part of control panel builds or replacement service. At 3.35 pounds, it is a compact unit appropriate for enclosure-mounted applications.

This transformer sees common use in commercial and light industrial settings where reliable step-down voltage conversion is required for relay logic, PLC inputs, or contactor coil circuits. It is appropriate for new panel construction as well as field replacement of failed control transformers in existing motor control or automation enclosures. The 240x480-volt dual primary winding provides flexibility across common North American service voltages.

Key Features

• 50 VA capacity suitable for powering standard control-circuit loads
• Dual primary winding accepts 240 or 480 volts for flexible installation across service voltages
• 120-volt secondary output for low-voltage control circuit applications
• Compact form factor at 3.35 pounds for enclosure-mounted use
• UPC verified unit for procurement and inventory tracking

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install control transformer for commercial and industrial electrical control panels requiring a 50 VA, 240x480-volt primary to 120-volt secondary step-down transformer.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize and lock out the panel or enclosure before removing or installing the transformer. Verify primary voltage selection and wiring connections match the supply voltage before energizing. Ensure the transformer VA rating meets or exceeds the total connected control-circuit load.
