- 60 Hz operation; indoor use only
- CSA certified (#LR 113601) and UL listed (#E 184936)
- REACH and RoHS compliant
The BPD2E is a Class 2 energy limiting plug-in transformer that converts 120V AC to 12V AC at 20 VA, delivering up to 1.67 A. It is aimed at installers and OEM builders powering AC chimes, door bells, security systems, decorative lighting, furnaces, humidifiers, appliances, vending machines and intercom systems from a standard receptacle.
Its 12 V output is the lowest in the BP range. The transformer is enclosed in a black plastic plug-in case, and the secondary connects through 2 recessed slot head screw terminals on the plug side. As a 20 VA unit it is inherently limited, so it has no fuses or circuit breakers.
The BPD2E is rated for 60 Hz and for indoor use only. It is CSA certified (#LR 113601) and UL listed (#E 184936), and is REACH and RoHS compliant. Shipping weight is 1.12 lbs (0.51 kg).
Every model in the BP Series takes a 120V input: the 20 VA models carry the BPD2 prefix and the 40 VA models the BPE2 prefix, and each group is offered with 12, 14, 16, 18 or 24V outputs. If your 12V load needs more than 1.67 A, the 40 VA BPE2E doubles the power rating at the same output voltage, at the cost of a fused rather than inherently limited design.
Ideal For
- AC chimes and door bells
- Security and intercom systems
- Decorative lighting
- Furnace and humidifier controls
- Appliances and vending machines

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the output of the BPD2E?▾
12V AC (RMS) at up to 1.67 A, for a 20 VA power rating, from a 120V AC input.
Does it have a fuse?▾
No. 20 VA BP units are inherently limited and use no fuses or circuit breakers.
How do I connect the low-voltage wiring?▾
The secondary has 2 recessed slot head screw terminals located on the plug side of the case.
Can it be used on 50 Hz power or outdoors?▾
The data specifies 60 Hz for all BP models, and the unit is for indoor use only.
Is there a higher VA version with the same 12V output?▾
Yes. The BPE2E is the 40 VA BP model with a 12V output.
