voltage stabilizing Transformer 120 to 24 volt.


Have problem with voltage from a 24 volt transformer dipping when HVAC System kicks in. Any advice as to replacement transformer to prevent the sag as it forces a rest in the electronics.

I doubt it is the transformer, more likely the 120v input is sagging and the 24v output is just following along. Monitor the 120v from an outlet and see if it sags. Do the lights dim?

If your HVAC causes that big of a sag then it seems to me you have bigger problems. I am not an electrician, but if there is a problem with the service to your home, the line into your home is inadequate, the HVAC is defective, or you have some poor connections somewhere in the line it could cause this problem.
