Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:25:14 PM): Hello David, my name is Kayzelle Rio. Please give me a moment to review your question. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:25:20 PM): Your request is: I am designing a branch circuit that is 2,000 feet long and need a buck n boost transformer to raise the voltage near the equipment.  
This branch circuit is to be located at a landfill so leachate gases will be present and will need to be nema 4x 
David (1/27/2022, 1:26:21 PM): Typically I just increase the wire size to account for voltage drop; however, this length I will need to increase the voltage near the equipment. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:27:04 PM): The branch circuit is 20amp 120V. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:27:56 PM): I'll be more than happy to assist you. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:28:14 PM): Just to verify were you looking for the transformer or the branch circuit? 
David (1/27/2022, 1:28:54 PM): transformer to boost the voltage near the equipment. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:29:17 PM): May I know the primary and secondary voltage? Is it 1 phase or 3 phase? 
David (1/27/2022, 1:29:35 PM): 120 volt 1 phase 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:29:59 PM): 120V for both the primary and secondary voltage? 
David (1/27/2022, 1:30:39 PM): Yes, i would expect the primary voltage to be down to 90 - 95 volts but I need the secondary to be 120 V 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:31:44 PM): Just to make sure I got is correctly, your incoming voltage is 90-95V and secondary or your load side is 120V with 20A load. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:32:53 PM): Correct, I can probably increase the wire size to get as much as 100Volt on the primary but the secondary/load side is 120V 20amp 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:33:57 PM): Thank you! 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:34:02 PM): I'll just have it checked. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:34:17 PM): While I do so may I know your company name as reference. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:34:42 PM): Thank You, I need to know the limit on the primary that would allow 120V 20amp on the secondary. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:35:11 PM): Our company is Dammon Engineering, Inc in Slidell, LA 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:37:21 PM): Thank you for waiting. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:37:38 PM): Upon checking you may use either of the transformer below
For 95V primary you may use 500SV46B with wiring diagram 2
For 100V primary you can use 500SV82B with wiring diagram 2 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:38:21 PM): You can check wiring diagram on page 6 of document 7414CT0201

David (1/27/2022, 1:39:24 PM): I am looking at the diagram,

David (1/27/2022, 1:40:28 PM): Do you know if the 500SV46B comes in a nema 4x enclosure? 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:41:36 PM): We only have them in NEMA 3R. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:43:03 PM): As I said in my initial information, this will be located near a landfill.  Say 100 ft away.  Is there any problems using this in that kind of environment? 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:45:00 PM): The NEMA 3R only provides protection against rain, sleet, wind-blown dust, and will remain undamaged by the external formation of ice on the enclosure. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:45:26 PM): If there's possible exposure to hazardous material this may not work. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:45:55 PM): Can a special enclosure be special ordered? 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:45:56 PM): Unfortunately, this is  the only type of transformer we can offer based on your specification. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:46:40 PM): We do not have custom made enclosure for  this types of transformer. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:47:47 PM): The only thing that may be an issue is the methane gas coming up from the landfill.  Is this equipment susceptible to methane gas? 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:49:23 PM): I'll have it verified. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:49:32 PM): Thank you, 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:52:05 PM): Upon verification, the presence of methane gas requires a Class I Group D type of enclosure. 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:52:18 PM): This is already hazardous material. 
David (1/27/2022, 1:52:50 PM): Thank you, 
Kayzelle Rio (1/27/2022, 1:53:48 PM): You're welcome! Is there anything else I can assist with you today? 
David (1/27/2022, 1:54:11 PM): Not today, Thank You again
