I have the original wiring diagrams for the T-former. I can fax you them if I know your fax #. It's easy to wire, but you must isolate the generator neutral and ground. One of the 220 vac generator "hot" legs is then grounded to the system ground. It's best explained by reviewing the schematic.

I have an old 4000 watt T-former that Photron put out and it was installed with a Trace 4024 to provide 220volts for a well pump until I ended up stacking inverters. I now wish to use it off the 220v out put from a Honda generator to do a step-down before it feeds a single inverter. The original step up was a simple install in which the t-former had a common in-out neutral and a 110v hot input and a single 220v output( 3-wire autoformer) But to go the other direction how the heck do I wire it? If one wire is neutral and one is input and the other output how am I tying to the plug off the genny? I dont have any literature except a info sheet that said it can work either way and as some of you know Photron went belly up and I believe Lawrence Jennings was exiled to Siberia or some such fate.
