Carrier 38TRA042 Transformer
A transformer is used in many applications including your HVAC system as it is used to convert electrical output usually from a higher voltage to a lower voltage. Heating and cooling transformers could have a certain criteria and you must follow specific volts called for with the original. If one needs replacing, make sure to purchase on that is rated for the correct voltage that is necessary.
