Hello,
I wonder if somebody could help me to work out the transformer wattage I need for an American rotary tool I bought? I’m looking to buy a transformer to be able to use the tool in my UK house socket and don’t want to fry the tool on first use!
The tool is 120v (60HZ) and 1 amp- am I right in thinking that it is a 120Watt tool and therefore I can use a 200W transformer? I think I read somewhere else that the transformer needs to be able to handle at least 140% of the tools wattage, should I go for a higher wattage transformer just incase?
Any electrical advice would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance for any help!
