Hello GlenH,

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your inquiry.

Installing a transformer is not suggested but you need a transformer that is rated for 16–24 volts AC in order to deliver constant power to the thermostat. You can also try the Nest Power Connector, and here's your reference on how it works.

Let me know if you have more questions in mind.

Regards,
Mark
