It converts household power into the much higher voltage the magnetron needs to heat food. Electrolux hasn't supplied a list of microwave models for this number, so confirm it against the label on the transformer inside your oven, or send the model and PNC from the rating plate through the parts enquiry form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTransformer faults in a microwave oven\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA microwave's transformer works hard every time the oven heats, and the windings can overheat, short or break down over the years. Common signs are an oven that powers up and counts down but leaves food cold, a heavy humming or groaning sound during heating, a smell of hot varnish, or a fuse that blows the moment heating starts. Because a shorted diode or failed capacitor can stress the transformer, a technician will usually test the whole high voltage circuit before replacing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 5550305006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 230V, 50Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransformer for microwave ovens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo model list on file, confirm by the number on the old transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoltage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrequency\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e50Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho should fit this transformer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLeave this one to a qualified technician. Even with the microwave unplugged, the capacitor can stay charged at a lethal voltage until it's discharged properly. The technician should check the diode, capacitor and magnetron, fit the new transformer with the original fixings and earth connections, and test the oven for microwave leakage before it goes back into use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs a 230V transformer right for Australian power?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAustralian homes are supplied at a nominal 230V, 50Hz, which matches the rating listed for 5550305006.
