- RoHS and REACH compliant
The 170G is a 1500VA hard wired autotransformer for panel builders, electricians and OEM engineers who need to change line voltage between 115VAC and 230VAC. It works in either direction: step down from 230VAC to 115VAC, or step up from 115VAC to 230VAC, at 50 or 60 Hz, which makes it suited to flexible worldwide applications.
Because it uses a single winding, the 170G does not provide isolation. It is intended for use where the equipment is already isolated and only a voltage change is required. It also does not convert line frequency, so equipment that depends on 50 Hz or 60 Hz must still match the local supply.
Connection is by flexible leads with an 8" minimum length, so the unit is wired directly into the installation rather than plugged in. Overall dimensions are A 4.38 in (111 mm), B 6.60 in (168 mm), C 5.30 in (135 mm), D 3.50 in (89 mm) and E 5.10 in (130 mm). The 1500VA 170G steps up to the larger 4.38 in (111 mm) A and 5.30 in (135 mm) C frame, with a B dimension of 6.60 in (168 mm) and a weight of 22 lbs.
The part is listed as RoHS compliant and REACH compliant, and is classified under UNSPSC 39121301 with UPC 623980249902. Shipping weight is 22 lbs (9.98 kg).
Ideal For
- Step-down from 230VAC to 115VAC for already-isolated equipment
- Step-up from 115VAC to 230VAC
- Voltage change for worldwide 50/60 Hz applications
- Hard-wired voltage conversion inside equipment or panels

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the 170G both step voltage up and down?▾
Yes. The 170G steps down from 230VAC to 115VAC or steps up from 115VAC to 230VAC, at 50 or 60 Hz.
Does the 170G isolate the load from the supply?▾
No. It is a single-winding autotransformer that does not provide isolation; it is for use where the equipment is already isolated and only a voltage change is required.
Will the 170G convert 50 Hz to 60 Hz?▾
No. These units do not convert line frequency; the output frequency is the same as the supply.
How is the 170G connected?▾
It is hard wired, with connection by flexible leads of 8" minimum length.
What are the dimensions and weight of the 170G?▾
Overall dimensions are A 4.38 in (111 mm), B 6.60 in (168 mm), C 5.30 in (135 mm), D 3.50 in (89 mm) and E 5.10 in (130 mm). Shipping weight is 22 lbs (9.98 kg).
