Can you wire two Victron Isolation Transformers onto the incoming 240v 50a shore power service for a boat. Wire one unit on L1 and the second on L2?
I see that it can be done with other Isolation transformers (Bridgeport magnetics), but I do not see anything about doing that with the Victron Isolation Transformer.
Yes you can do that, but you then also need to be careful if you configure the outputs for 230V - the output phase may be reversed. Better to wire the outputs for 115V also.
So L1/N on one unit and L2/N on the other unit. I thought the isolation transformer passed through the exact same power and phase. How would you get the output phase reversed. This is all for US by the way. 120/240v
Ok, L2 is 180 degrees out of phase from L1, so as long as the 2 Neutrals are connected together on the input side and separately connect the 2 neutrals on the output side, then L1 and L2 on the output side should also be 180 degrees out of phase.
Only way to get this reversed is to incorrectly wire the 115V jumper wires.- or if the transformers are wound differently, both are unlikely.
I’m late to the party, but yes, you can do that. Bond the input and output neutrals per Mike’s direction.
Thanks for the response, Ed. I have decided to go with another solution as I was informed that the Victron Isolation Transformers are not ABYC compliant and they would only provide 32A of 240V power. Apparently the ABYC recommend solution is to go with the Hubbell 15 kVA Marine Isolation Transformer - 60 Hz.
