The Rex BA225J-P/Z3 is a 225 KVA, 3-phase isolation transformer rated 600V primary / 277·480V secondary, designed for demanding industrial and commercial power distribution. At 225 KVA it is well suited to step down 600V service to a 277/480V wye distribution system, feeding motor control centres, lighting panels, and general plant loads. The isolation (ISO) design provides galvanic separation between primary and secondary, improving power quality and reducing noise for sensitive equipment. Send us your load schedule or installation details and we'll confirm this unit meets your application requirements.
At 225 KVA, 3-phase, this transformer can supply approximately 270 A on the 480V secondary (line-to-line) under full load. For practical sizing, a common rule of thumb is to load transformers to no more than 80% of nameplate KVA for continuous duty — roughly 180 KVA of sustained load. Always account for motor starting inrush and harmonic loads when sizing.
An isolation transformer provides galvanic separation between the primary (600V) and secondary (277/480V) windings. This eliminates a direct electrical path between the two circuits, reducing common-mode noise, suppressing voltage transients, and improving safety. It is especially beneficial when supplying sensitive electronic equipment, variable frequency drives (VFDs), or where ground fault management is critical.
Rex transformers are considered a legacy/hard-to-find product line, but Northern Breaker Group specialises in sourcing obsolete and discontinued electrical equipment across Canada. We can check stock for the BA225J-P/Z3 specifically, or help identify a compatible modern equivalent by KVA, voltage class, and enclosure type.
