Hughes Autoformers PWD50-EPO with Auto Shutoff

Thanks for the comments. I pulled the trigger and ordered the unit from Amazon. The current Amazon price is $251.

I think the fix for that is a neutral bonding plug.

I used a older Hughes autoformer and I can tell you in some places it was a real lifesaver And a Surge Guard after it but before the auto transfer switch.

I used a "hard wired" version of the Surge Guard but put pigtails on it so it "installed" in the same manner as the Autoformer. made it easy to pull when the RV got totaled

I have the 50 amp hardwire version. Never thought I needed it until a guy a couple of sites away lost his neutral. That convinced me. I really like the Bluetooth connectivity to my phone. At any moment, I can see volts and amps on each leg, and total watts. Also shows total KW used.

Hi,

I don't have a Hughes, but I LOVE my sola basic autoformer.

I have their 30amp Autoformer with surge protection - enables me to run my air conditioner with Honda 2200i while in the Eco mode*

Not me but I’m happy with the 30 model.
