Why Choose the ETE MV250P2S3 Multi-Voltage Control Transformer?
The ETE MV250P2S3 is a versatile and reliable 250 VA single-phase multi-voltage control transformer designed to provide flexible low-voltage AC supplies for industrial machinery, electrical control panels and automation equipment. As part of the ETE MV multi-voltage control transformer series, it features a configurable primary winding and dual 12 V secondary windings, making it suitable for industrial applications requiring either 12 V or 24 V AC control power.
Designed for dependable voltage transformation, the MV250P2S3 provides electrical isolation between its primary and secondary windings while offering flexibility in secondary output configuration. Its two separate 0/12 V secondary windings can be connected in parallel for a nominal 12 V AC output or in series for a nominal 24 V AC output, provided the correct winding polarity and connection arrangement are observed.
With a rated apparent power of 250 VA, primary terminals marked 20/0/380/420 V and a compact design measuring 120 × 88 × 120 mm, the MV250P2S3 is an excellent choice for machine builders and electrical panel manufacturers. The transformer also includes a 20 V primary adjustment tap, with the correct connection arrangement to be confirmed with ETE before installation.

Flexible Low-Voltage Power for Industrial Control Systems
Industrial control transformers such as the ETE MV250P2S3 convert an incoming AC supply into a lower voltage suitable for control circuits and automation equipment. The MV series is designed to offer flexible voltage configurations, helping electrical engineers and machine builders select suitable transformer connections for different industrial control requirements.
The MV250P2S3 incorporates two 12 V secondary windings, allowing the transformer to supply either 12 V AC through a parallel connection or 24 V AC through a series connection. Parallel connections require correct winding polarity and compatible winding characteristics, while series connections must be arranged for voltage addition. The combined load must remain within the transformer's 250 VA rating.
The primary winding features terminals marked 20/0/380/420 V, including a 20 V adjustment tap. This adjustment facility supports the manufacturer's specified primary connection arrangements, but the exact terminal selection and adjustment method must be confirmed with ETE before energising the transformer. Its Class E insulation and specified 8% voltage regulation further define its electrical operating characteristics.
