Honeywell Home Intrusion 1361-GT Transformer 40VA

Product Description

The Honeywell Home Intrusion 1361-GT is a step-down power transformer rated at 16.5 volts AC, 40 volt-amperes (VA), and 2.4 amps output. It converts standard line voltage to a lower AC voltage suitable for powering low-voltage security and intrusion detection equipment. This transformer is a hardwired component typically installed inside a control panel enclosure or mounted to a backboard near the main security panel. Licensed alarm technicians and low-voltage electricians are the primary installers. The 40 VA rating provides enough capacity to support panel operation plus peripheral devices on the same secondary circuit.

This transformer is suited for residential and light commercial security system installations where a reliable 16.5 VAC supply is required. It is commonly used to power intrusion detection control panels, keypads, and associated low-voltage accessories. The 2.4 amp output supports typical panel bus loads without oversizing. Installations are found in single-family homes, small offices, and retail environments where a dedicated low-voltage power source is needed at the control panel location.

Key Features

• 16.5 VAC output voltage for low-voltage security panel applications
• 40 VA power rating supports panel and peripheral device loads
• 2.4 amp output current capacity
• Single-unit packaging suitable for individual panel installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation transformer for low-voltage intrusion detection and security control panel systems requiring a 16.5 VAC, 40 VA power supply.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed low-voltage electrician or alarm technician in accordance with applicable local codes and NFPA 70 (NEC) Article 725 for Class 2 and Class 3 remote-control and signaling circuits. Disconnect and lock out primary line voltage before handling wiring connections. Mount the transformer securely within or adjacent to the control panel enclosure to keep secondary wiring runs short and reduce voltage drop. Do not exceed the rated 40 VA load on the secondary winding.
