ELC T-5000 5000-Watt Voltage Converter Transformer – Step Up/Down – 110V/220V – Circuit Breaker Protection
ELC series of step up/down voltage transformers offers you a safe, reliable, affordable & convenient solution to converting voltages from 110-120 volt up to 220-240 volt or from 220-240 volt down to 110-120 volt for both home use & industrial applications. The T-5000 is rated at 5,000 watts maximum. It features a heavy-duty cord with a standard US 3-prong plug. There are a total of three outputs on the front panel. Two are grounded 110V outputs designated for 120 volts with a US standard outlet and the 220 volt only universal outlet which accepts plugs from most countries. For safety, it’s recommended by the manufacturer that the voltage transformer’s maximum power should be equal or greater than the power rating of your appliance multiplied by 1.5. For example, if you have an appliance rated at 100 watts, you will need to pick a transformer with a maximum power of 150 watts or greater. The ELC T series also features circuit breakers which protect the equipment and the transformer against overload. With circuit breaker protection you’ll never need to replace fuses.

Excellent unit, but mind the rating, and the power cable I purchased the 3000 W ELC transformer in order to use a 240 VAC espresso machine (1150 W) and a 240 VAC coffee grinder (150 W) that I brought back from Australia on the 120 VAC kitchen outlet in the US. According to the advice to allow a 50% overhead in the rating, a 2000 W unit should have been adequate. However, I bought the 3000 W unit to have even more margin. It costs only $10 more, and is no larger in physical size (but it weighs a few pounds more) than the 2000 w unit. I inspected it…
I really like this for a couple of reasons Engineer here. I really like this for a couple of reasons. The packaging is good. Arrived safely with no damage despite the weight. It’s a good size for anywhere that uses the 13 amp UK fused type of plug because you’re not going to get much more than 3,000 watts out of one of those anyway. The construction is solid and it has a nice fit / finish to it.It comes with a US style plug which is not ideal for my situation. We’re in the UAE and I need to step down to 120 VAC. I…
A Tale of Fractions I own several vintage espresso machines that require 220v lines. Okay, I collect them. I owned a typical 1500w step-up converter for many years but recently brought back an espresso machine from Ye Olde Countree that draws just about 1500w, so I bought another typical transformer 3000w step-up converter. Most of these things are built in China at low cost, and I suspect many are from the same manufacturer with different names on the cases.I bought one with a USB power point on the…
