Description
This wired doorbell transformer may be used as an 8V, 16V, or 24V transformer. Manufactured by Carlon, a Thomas and Betts company, this transformer will power up to two low-voltage devices; 10VA(watts) for 8 and 16 volts, and a secondary 20VA(watts) at 24 volts.
The Ideal Transformer to Power Two Chimes, Bells, or Buzzers on the Same Transformer.
Small and compact, this product is durable and packs a punch. The versatility enables contractors to use it in a variety of situations. Rather than stocking three different voltages of transformers, stock this one and use the setting you need.
Clamp-on style makes mounting easy. Mount the outer bracket, wire it, and snap it back in the mounting bracket.

Edward Deiter –
I have 120 volt transformer and my doorbell calls for only 16 volt what can I do
Ernest Tonski –
How do I wire 2 chimes to your 24v, 20va transformer? There are 2 doorbell buttons, and each button should work both chimes at the same time.
Thanks, ET
Customer –
Iâm using a tri volt transformer too hard wire Ring Doorbell three had the electrician choose the 24 V choice
When I placed my hand over the junction box it feels warm is this normal?
Steve (aka STRANGER) Berry –
The transformer feels hot ALL OF THE TIME. Is there a connection issue? How much electricity does this transformer use, even when the door bell is not ringing? I feel like this heat is costing me a lot of electricty (on my bill) even when the door bell may get rung twice a month.
Don Douglas –
Will this Work with a 10-12 V low voltage house number light, and a 16V doorbell chime, both wired to this unit?
Thank you!

I was happy to Receive the package in a few days, fast shipping, unfortunately one screw on the button was stripped so I re threaded it a size bigger and used a larger screw. The rest of the install went well. The bell rang 4 or 5 times and then failed to ring. I checked for voltage at the bell and all was well there. found the contact in the bell in need of adjustment. I bent the arm base a wee bit to give the points better contact and it seems to be ok.

Can I connect a device to the 8 VAC side with another device connected to the 24 VAC side of the same tri-volt transformer?

Good afternoon,
It’s not recommended to do this. Use either one, but not both.
