Hello People,

I have a 10kva site transformer with a 32a 2P+E plug with a 3G4mm2 H05VV-F(yellow) as input.

A temporary DB will feed him and a socket with the same characteristics will be provided but not sure if I still need to keep the same cable colour( DB is on 230v).

Thank you
 
Seems very odd it has a 110v plug. Personally I would check the rating plate and change the cable and hard wire it to a 40A breaker.
 
Is there a rating plate or similar on it saying what the inputs and outputs are?

You might just have a 110V isolating transformer and not a 230V-110V step-down!
Sorry for the late reply. The client bought a 6way 110v splitter box thinking to had a great deal(he actually got 2 at the price of 1). I have realised only when I went to see personally the unit!
 
Ooops!
What we technically call a 1:1 autotransformer ?
