[Amps] Buck-Boost Transformer Selection

I have a lead on a late production Quadra so I guess I better
invest in a B-B Xfmr to get my sometimes 250 volt line down
to something acceptable to my new little friend.

Question is on the rating for the Xfmr ... I expect I should get
something rated for the load, say 1.5 KVA (considering the
rating is for CCS use not ICAS).

Now I find lots of them over on the evil empire, but looking at
the specs on the label is confusing:

One I found says:

Max Volts 264   Max Amps 62.5  1.5KVA

The current rating does not make sense. How can I sort this out ??

Thanks, Dick, W1KSZ
