[R-390] Isolation Transformer

Mon, 4 Aug 2003 11:39:14 -0400 (EDT)

Have a pair of 240-120 (or the other way round if you like)
here. IIRC 1KVA CCS but may be a little bigger.

Can wire for isolation, step up, step down or 480V if you need...

They are in Canton GA...destination ebay but I'm no where
near that pallet yet so if interested, write...
