The transformer is used to control the maximum amount of power that will flow on a cable, preventing the cables from overloading on high power draw.

There are three variants of the transformer:
+
It comes in 2 variants, Transformer Small and Transformer.
  
−
The Transformer (Small) requires 1x Kit (Transformer) to place and is limited to 5,000 W of output. It can be placed in any orientation on a supporting surface (floor, wall, or ceiling) and is available as Transformer Reversed (Small).
+
The small transformer is limited to 5,000W output and the large one to 50,000W.
  
−
The Transformer (Medium) requires 3x Kit (Transformer) to place and is limited to 25,000 W of output. Similarly, it can be placed on any floor, wall, or ceiling and is available as a Transformer Reversed (Medium).
+

Given that the transformer can limit power very specifically (with 100W increments), you can control or stop the output line from drawing more than the transformer gives out. This can be used to control many items that don't have a changing power usage, such as lights, volume pumps, pipe regulators, active vents, and more. This is similar to the [[Area Power Controller]] but does not have a battery buffer.
−
The Transformer (Large) requires 1x Kit Transformer (Large) to place and is limited to 50,000 W of output. It can only be placed in one orientation, ideally the floor, but it can be stacked above floor level by placing it partway into a frame.
