English to German translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / transformer in a hotel
English term or phrase: captioned transformer
Therefore the captioned transformer should be equipped with a leak-retention facility.

My question is:
Can I say 'C-Transformator'? Or is this wrong?
I can't find any other word for it

Thanks for your help.

disagree  Rolf Keller: "Überschriebene Übertrager" gibt es nicht, auch nicht in der zitierten Quelle. Davon abgesehen handelt es sich hier vermutlich überhaupt nicht um einen Übertrager, sondern um einen Stromversorgungs-Transformator.
