Any transformer will be worth more than a ?oven? [I don't recall
what this was.] it can run. Transformers are not cheap new.


The furnace in question probably runs over $1000 new. A new
transformer large enough to power it would be less than $200. I sold a
couple used weatherproof 15kVA 480/240 to 240/120 transformers
recently, and was glad to get around $100 each for them.
