GI 3600 / Isotransformer 2000 — isolation transformer, 2–3.6 kVA
Country: Netherlands · Model: GI 3600 / Isotransformer 2000
An isolation transformer rated 2.0 or 3.6 kVA that galvanically separates a vessel from shore power. It breaks the electrical link between the hull and shore earth and protects the underwater parts from galvanic corrosion.

Description
The Isotransformer 2000 is built on a toroidal core and rated 2.0 kVA. The GI 3600 delivers 3.6 kVA and has class H insulation (180 °C). The windings are copper, the circuit switches between 230/110 V and 240/120 V, and frequency is 50/60 Hz, so the vessel can plug into both European and American pedestals. A built-in soft start limits the magnetizing inrush at switch-on, so the breaker on the shore pedestal does not trip. Without isolation the hull is tied through the shore protective conductor to neighboring boats and dock metalwork, and galvanic currents flow between them. Downstream of the transformer the onboard neutral and protective conductor are bonded to the hull, and the shore PE is not connected to it.
How to choose
Choose the rating by the load the vessel draws from shore, 2.0 kVA is enough for light consumption, while charging banks and running domestic appliances calls for the GI 3600 at 3.6 kVA. The 230/110 V or 240/120 V switch position is set to match the marina supply and the onboard network. If a WPC inverter-charger sits downstream of the transformer, its charging input current counts in the total load.

FAQ
What is the rating of the GI 3600 isolation transformer?
The GI 3600 is rated 3.6 kVA, the Isotransformer 2000 is rated 2.0 kVA.
What insulation class does the GI 3600 have?
Class H, 180 °C.
What voltages does the marine isolation transformer switch between?
Between 230/110 V and 240/120 V at 50/60 Hz.
Why does a boat need an isolation transformer?
It breaks the link between hull and shore earth, so galvanic currents between boats and the dock do not eat away the underwater parts.
Why does the GI 3600 not trip the pedestal breaker at switch-on?
The built-in soft start limits the magnetizing inrush that a 3.6 kVA transformer would otherwise put on the shore breaker.
