Carrier 38YKC042 Transformer
A basic electrical transformer is very common in many household goods including your HVAC system as it is used to convert electrical output to an altered voltage to be used for some particular device. Transformers are all different and they should follow strict voltage needs. If one needs replacing, be sure to purchase a transformer that is correctly assessed for the correct voltage that is needed.
