It's important to make sure that the replacement transformer you use is compatible with your GE NX-8 system. The Honeywell transformer you mentioned has the correct input voltage and frequency (120V 60Hz), but the amperage is lower (.30A) than what is typically required for the GE NX-8 transformer.

The transformer for the GE NX-8 system typically requires an output voltage of 16.5V AC and an amperage of 1.7A or higher. Therefore, it's important to find a replacement transformer that meets these specifications to ensure proper functioning of the system.

You can try checking with the manufacturer of the GE NX-8 system to see if they sell replacement transformers or if they can recommend a compatible one. Alternatively, you can search for replacement transformers that meet the specifications online or consult with a professional technician who can help you find a suitable replacement.
