BUCK AND BOOST
TRANSFORMERS
A buck and boost transformer is an insulating transformer·
which can be connected as an auto transformer.
The buck and boost transformer is used to make small
adjustments in voltage either up or down. For example, a
machine has an electric motor which requires 208 V, but
the electrical supply is 240 V. If ordering the machine
with a 240-V motor is expensive, a less costly solution to
