A plug-in transformer is an alternative but reliable method of powering Ring Video Doorbell Pro, and can resolve problems related to an existing transformer not supplying enough power. This setup can also be used to install Ring Pro in a home that doesn’t have existing doorbell wiring. Click here to download a PDF version of the instructions.

See and discover other items: ademco security systems16v-transformer is reading 20.5v on my voltage reader. Does it need replacing? The 16V is at its full output load rating (approx 0.6 amps). If you are loading it at less than that the voltage will be higher. Regarding temperature, if you can hold your hand on it, its probably ok. Is this compatible with the Ring Doorbell, that calls for a 16v to 24v transformer?I've used it precisely for that purpose. The instructions are incomplete, however, make sure you call support if you have the Ring Doorbell Pro. They will send you a fuse holder to place between one of the contacts. Without it you risk blowing your unit either the door bell or the transformer. Its just a 1A20x5mm fuse, so you could wire your own but its best to have support send you one for free. They sent me a free chime, too. What is the amp rating? There is no current rating per se, only a power rating specification of 10W. Since the nominal output voltage is 16Vac, we can use that and the power rating to estimate that the maximum current is about 0.6 amps.
My transformer was made in China. I would rate its quality of construction as "good." Help Bought a wireless system that does not work after 2 months push button does not work. This transformer does not install at the door, it usually is installed near your furnace and tied into the wiring for the actual chime box. If you mean to re-install the pushbutton for the doorbell, then if you can reach the wires there to re-install the button, you may be able to solder an extension, however, that is chancy if you don't insulate properly. You may be stuck having to remove wood to extend the wires. How do I connect two doorbell chime wires to transformer screws? Both wires must be connected. One wire to each screw. This is an AC (alternating current) voltage, so there is no polarity. Doesn't matter what wire goes to which screw. Can I use this to run a 12 volt DC marine pump? Will this transformer fit an old nutone doorbell It should.....most old doorbells have a two wire that goes all the way back to the furnace where the transformer is mounted.
I have no idea what kind of doorbell mine was, but the actual press mechanism was at the door and the doorbell was mounted above my thermostat on an interior wall. the wires then went down to the basement where the furnace was, so both sets of wires were controlled by the power lead to the furnace, thus why the transformer was mounted there. You should be able to find your old transformer and be able to just remove and replace. Can I hook this up via power outlet cord The short answer is yes, you could use a power cord to wire power to the transformer as long as the cord is rated for 120V/1A and has a ground wire with ground plug. But your installation would probably not be compliant with the National Electrical Code. The transformer is designed to be installed on a code-compliant junction box. (See attached picture from the installation instructions.) You should connect wiring from a branch circuit to the transformer leads using wire nuts, which means that the connections must be enclosed in the junction box.
And the transformer as well as the junction box must be accessible and unhidden. This is the proper method for installing the transformer. The best advice is to do it right the first time.

What's an easy way of installing a traditional door bell? I know there are the wireless, battery operated ones, but I'm tired of changing out batteries. Is there a version of doorbell that could just be plugged into a wall outlet, or better yet, NOT use up and outlet but somehow "tap into" a nearby outlet for power? There are a small number of battery free doorbells such as these They work on a signal generated by pressure (piezoelectric?). These are similar to the wireless battery-free switches now showing up for AC fixtures. Images and links are for illustration only and not an endorsement of any products or sources
Installing a conventional doorbell involves fishing low voltage or T-wire from the button and chime to a transformer that is attached to a 120vac power source. This is usually done at a j-box in the basement or some exposed area. The transformer cannot be hidden without access in a wall etc. If you have existing finished walls, there is never an "easy" way to fish these wires through enclosed spaces. I like some of the suggestions in the comment section. A plug in chime and a battery operated button is an excellent option. To answer the question: yes, small plug-in transformers exist if you're willing to tie up an outlet that way; most traditional doorbell systems run on something between 12 and 24 volts. (First one my web search hit was 16V.) It's more common to hardwire the transformer into a box in the basement. As noted, though, the more challenging part may bd running the wires between transformer, button, and bell. Easy to do in "new work"; harder to retrofit without a lot of patching.
