*K-Factor Transformer, also known as K-Rated transformer, is designed for nonlinear or harmonic generating loads that a standard transformer could not adequately handle due to overheating.
*K-factor transformers are especially assembled with a double sized neutral conductor, heavier gauge copper and either change the geometry of their conductors or use multiple conductors for the coils.
*These properties allow them to endure the additional heat caused by harmonic currents much better than a standard transformer
