Remove the doorbell and leave the wires disconnected and keep them from touching each other. Also disconnect the low voltage wires from it. While you are waiting for them to arrive, disconnect power from the transformer, until you have the resistor you do not need to touch it. What this does is give you a dummy load in case of a short circuit.

The remaining wire connects directly to the free transformer screw. You need to connect one of those directly to a screw terminal on the low voltage side of the transformer, then one of the wires to the other end of it. The reason your transformers are frying, because you have a short circuit on the low voltage side of the transformer.įirst thing you need to do is order this:

You can see in Ring products that they also sell a Power transformer adapter to power any camera device, note use of the Power Pro Kit is not mentioned(install instructions) or required when using the power adapter. Side Note: If you disconnect the old existing ringer solenoids from your doorbell circuit and use only a Ring Chime Pro for audio then you don't need the Power Pro Kit, all you need is a 16-24 VAC 20-30VA transformer for power to the Doorbell camera device. Hope this helps those who ask "why is it used". Thus the PPKit suppresses the large voltage spikes from harming the Pro doorbell device. Remember basic inductor theory when AC applied voltage reaches zero Volts the electromagnetic field collapses on the inductor solenoid and a very very large voltage is placed on the connecting lines. The Pro Power Kit purpose is really to suppress the voltage surge generated by the old existing doorbell ringer solenoids when the transformer 24 VAC voltage is zero Volts. Connected the Ring Pro and all is well - up and running healthy!.Implemented the bypass configuration with the Pro Power Kit (which I just became aware of today).Bought the correct transformer (16v 30va).Replaced my doorbell wire since it had a short.But IF there is a staple through the doorbell wire and it’s causing a short, would the result of that short be a fried transformer? This isn’t confirmed yet, I will have to check when I get home tonight. Ok, new question - I just found out that it’s possible there could be a staple through my new doorbell wire, thus possibly causing a short between the transformer and the doorbell. No idea what is going on and I just keep burning through transformers. I’ve tried with the ring power kit and without it. about 45 feet from the doorbell to the transformer. The doorbell wire I am connect to the transformer is new 14 gauge 2 wire. I’ve gone through this 4 times now trying to figure out why so I can fix it. Then the transformer immediately dies and no longer shows any voltage output. until I connect wires to the transformer. I turned the breaker on and off a few times and checked the voltage several times - all looks good. The power cables going into the transformer read 120v on my voltage meter prior to connecting it 👍🏼Īfter connecting it, the transformer reads 22v 👍🏼 I bought a 16v 10va transformer and hooked it to power. My home did not already have a doorbell so I needed to run new power for my ring doorbell pro.
