Key Features of Pad Mounted Transformers:
Pad-mounted transformers are mounted on the ground to service underground distribution networks. These pad-mounted distribution transformers typically serve urban and rural residential, commercial, and industrial loads. They offer the maximum amount of tamper resistance in the lowest profile design.
ANSI single-phase pad-mounted transformers come equipped with a clamshell cabinet for ease of opening and uninhibited access to connections. The versatility of the design allows for various protective and switching configurations.
ANSI three-phase pad-mounted cabinet offers a unique cabinet that features a one-piece sloped cabinet weather cover to effectively shed water and allow easier access into the cabinet compartment. The pad-mounted transformer can be configured for live and dead front high-voltage connections along with radial or loop feed. Various switching and protection schemes can be integrated into the unit making for a low-profile, reliable, and multi-functional transformer.
