AC Transformers

What is an Air Conditioner Transformer?

The purpose of the transformer is to convert the voltage that moves from the circuit board to the AC unit. This process allows the AC and the fan to work together while cycling on and off. Electricity usage can be increased or decreased depending on the power need.

Why Do AC Transformers Blow?

A blown transformer can prevent your AC system from working. Common causes of blown transformers include improper wiring and wires that have been cut, frayed or chewed on by animals.

It is best to leave these types of repairs to professionals. Often, a blown transformer will produce a burned smell, particularly around low-voltage coils. A voltage meter can confirm if the transformer is blown.
