Replacement with heavy duty doorbell transformer for Ring & Nest doorbell that requires only 16v, 30va. Wire colors explained.
The standard household voltage is 120v. A doorbell only uses 10v to 24v. The transformer drops the voltage, so the 120v household circuit is reduced to 10v to 24v for powering the chime unit and bell button. The Ring and Nest need 16v.
There are two screws for connecting two low-voltage wires for the doorbell system. Because they’re low voltage, they can’t give a bad electric shock.
Turn off the breaker to the transformer before you get started. The transformer voltage is 24v. The Ring and Nest need 16v and 30va (volt amps, like watts). This one is 24v and 48va - more power.
1. If you are not getting a power signal from the Ring transformer, it may be the doorbell transformer is burnt out, or is under-powered.
2. If the wifi network is slower, check-out the speed and how many connected devices you have. Upgrade the wifi router for multiple simultaneous devices to cure the slow Ring’s response time. And a low-powered transformer causes intermittent performance.
3. For the Ring with a rechargeable battery, the new transformer will constantly charge the battery. Battery wear is from poor wifi signal, audio and video, or motion detection.
4. If there are long wiring runs over 70 feet, you should get the 24v transformer, not the 16v unit.
Wiring: Connect black wire from transformer to your black wire household electric current (hot); white wire from transformer to white household (neutral); and green (or stripped copper) wire to a ground (like the metal wire box).
When the power is off, remove the transformer. Remember which lines are going where – power, ground, neutral, the front door, the back door, the chime. Strip the wire casings and get a good, clean connection.
On the other side of the transformer will be for the energy outlet. There are two, maybe three screws. One is for the push buttons, next will be for the chime, and if there's a third, it’s for speakers or something. Connect all of the push button wires to the same screw. There’s only one chime. And the third, if so, should all be connected together if they are the same.
After the wires are attached, mount the new transformer in the same location.
