I am wiring up a buck boost transformer (autotransformer). I see from NEC 450.4 that I only need to have OCPD's on the line side (is this still the "primary" for an autotransformer?) of the auto transformer. Looking at exhibit 450.6, this is clearly shown. I am adding the buck boost transformer to a compressor branch circuit. Does it matter where my contactors are placed in the circuit? Should they be placed on the line side of the transformer so that power is disconnected from the transformer or can they be placed on the load side so that the contactors only control the Compressor?
