In Stock : Dispatched within 24 Hours from Adelaide
Power Rating: 200W Peak / 160W Continuous
The PAC ST-200 is an Australian-compliant 200W step-down voltage converter designed to safely operate low-draw 110V–120V North American and 100V Japanese electronics on Australian 240V mains electricity. Built with dual dedicated front output sockets (1 x 100V Japan, 1 x 110V/120V USA), smooth low-inrush power delivery, rear panel fuse protection, and an internal thermal safety cutoff. Backed by PAC's 2-Year Australian Replacement Warranty.
PAC Step-Down Voltage Converters — Reliable, Safe Power Conversion for Imported Electronics
Safely run your imported 100V Japanese and 110V–120V North American electronics in Australia with the PAC 200W Step-Down Transformer (SKU: ST-200).
Engineered for smooth power delivery and thermal stability, the ST-200 provides safe, steady AC voltage conversion for everyday household electronics. Unlike high-inrush converters that can cause nuisance tripping on domestic circuit breakers, the ST-200 draws power smoothly upon startup. Featuring dual dedicated front outlets, it powers authentic Japanese 100V gear at exact voltage alongside standard North American 110V–120V devices without dangerous over-voltage stress.
Key Features:
- Dual Independent Output Sockets: 1 x 100V outlet (tailored specifically for Japanese electronics) and 1 x 110V/120V outlet (for North American equipment).
- Smooth Low-Inrush Startup: Engineered to switch on smoothly on standard household power circuits without tripping sensitive safety switches.
- 200W Capacity: Rated for up to 200 Watts peak power and 160 Watts continuous duty (for continuous loads exceeding 1 hour).
- Dual Safety Protection: Protected by an easily accessible rear panel fuse and automatic internal thermal cutoff.
- Selectable Input Voltage: Rear selector switch allows operation on Australian 240V mains (standard step-down) or 100V mains (for running US gear in Japan). Note: Does not output 240V (requires ST-1000 or higher for 240V output).
- Australian Standards Compliant: ACMA and EESS Responsible Supplier registered for Australian electrical safety.
- 2-Year Replacement Warranty: Supported directly by PAC in South Australia.

Frequently Asked Questions (ST-200)
Q: Can the ST-200 be used to step up Australian 240V appliances in the USA or Japan?
A: No. The ST-200 does not feature a 240V output socket. Its front sockets output 100V (Japan) and 110V/120V (USA). While the rear switch allows a 100V input (useful for operating 120V US gear in Japan), it cannot step up to 240V for Australian appliances. For full bidirectional step-up to 240V with Australian sockets, select the ST-1000 or higher models.
Q: What is the continuous wattage rating of the PAC ST-200?
A: The ST-200 is rated for 200 Watts peak and 160 Watts continuous duty for appliances operating continuously for more than 1 hour. We recommend maintaining this 20% safety buffer for long-term appliance reliability.
Q: How is the ST-200 protected if it doesn't have an external circuit breaker switch?
A: The ST-200 features a rear-panel 2A replaceable fuse for overcurrent and short-circuit protection, along with an internal automatic thermal safety cutoff that disengages power if internal temperatures exceed safe thresholds.
Q: Can I use both the 100V and 120V outlets simultaneously?
A: Yes, as long as the combined power consumption of both connected devices does not exceed 160W continuous (200W peak).
