In agreement
Energy saving solutions manufacturer EMSc (UK) has acted swiftly to agree with the findings published by Salix Finance, in its recent report on step-down transformers.
The Salix Finance report confirms EMSc (UK)’s own findings that step-down transformers do not save energy, but simply drop the voltage; a fact EMSc (UK) has been stating for over a decade. The report Salix released draws on a study carried out in Denmark, in which step-down transformers were used to identify energy savings on a variety of equipment, including motors. The results found the savings were insignificant, which only substantiated EMSc (UK)’s long-standing statement about step-down transformers.
