Function
-To transform input voltage from 120 to 100 VAC.
-Every electrical component of the water heater is designed to only work
with a 100 VAC power supply, therefore, the water heater comes equipped
with this transformer.
Failure event
1. There is no power coming from the transformer.
2. The voltage from the power supply cannot be converted to 100 VAC.
Effects on the water
heater if transformer fails
1. The water heater does not operate due to lack of power from
transformer.
