The Rex BC150J-M/Z3 is a 150 KVA, 3-phase isolation transformer stepping down from 600V primary to 120/208V secondary — a standard Canadian distribution voltage pair widely used in commercial and industrial facilities. Its isolation design (Z3 impedance designation) provides noise attenuation and fault current limiting, making it well-suited for sensitive equipment loads, mechanical rooms, and distribution sub-panels in office buildings, light manufacturing, and institutional settings.

The Z3 designation refers to the transformer's impedance rating, typically around 3%. This level of impedance helps limit fault current on the secondary side, protecting downstream equipment and breakers. It also provides some degree of harmonic attenuation — particularly useful in facilities with variable frequency drives (VFDs), UPS systems, or other non-linear loads common in commercial and industrial environments.
Yes. The 600V primary is the standard distribution voltage used across Canadian industrial and commercial facilities, and the 120/208V secondary aligns with the standard Canadian utilization voltage for 3-phase wye systems. As an isolation transformer, it is well-suited for compliance with Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) requirements for separately derived systems. We recommend confirming your specific installation requirements with a licensed electrician or engineer.
Absolutely — sourcing hard-to-find and obsolete electrical equipment is one of our core specialties. If the BC150J-M/Z3 is no longer in standard production, we can help locate new-old-stock, remanufactured, or direct-replacement units from our network. Contact our Calgary, Edmonton, or Vancouver counters with your unit's nameplate details and we'll work to find the right match for your project.
