Three Phase Pad mounted Transformer FAQ
1. What is a pad mounted transformer?
Pad type is a type of power transformer that integrates high-voltage switchgear, oil immersed transformers, and low-voltage distribution equipment into a closed metal box, complying with North American standards such as NEMA, ANSI, IEEE, and commonly used in urban power grids and industrial distribution.
What is the difference between a pad mounted transformer and a regular three-phase transformer?
• Structural difference: The gasket mounted transformer bushing and other accessories are sealed inside the box for greater safety
• High voltage connection: commonly used T-head or elbow cable plug-in connectors for pad mounted transformers;
• Overload capacity: Pad mounted transformers have higher overload capacity than ordinary transformers
Production cost: Pad mounted transformers use more materials, resulting in higher costs
What are the typical application scenarios of pad mounted transformers?
Roadside power distribution in urban residential areas and commercial centers;
Distributed power supply for industrial parks or large factories;
Rapid access to temporary construction sites and new energy power stations (such as photovoltaics);
North America, South America, and the Middle East follow the American standard for power grid renovation.
How to choose the protection level for pad mounted transformers?
• Basic outdoor: NEMA 3R (rain and snow protection, ventilation and heat dissipation);
• Harsh environment: NEMA 4 (anti spray, dust) or NEMA 4X (corrosion-resistant);
Compare IP ratings: NEMA 3R≈IP24,NEMA 4≈IP66。
What are the installation requirements for pad mounted transformers?
• Foundation: The load-bearing capacity of the concrete platform is ≥ the total weight of the box (containing approximately 1-10 tons of oil);
Ventilation: Reserve at least 1 meter of space around the box to avoid direct sunlight;
Grounding: Grounding resistance ≤ 4 Ω, multi-point grounding is better;
Cable entrance: Sealed and waterproof treatment to prevent small animals from entering.
What is the maintenance cycle and key items for pad mounted transformers?
Daily inspection: check the oil level, oil temperature, and sealing of the box every month;
Annual maintenance: testing insulation oil breakdown voltage (≥ 30kV), cleaning high-voltage bushings;
5-year overhaul: Check the oxidation condition of cable joints and replace aging seals.
How to deal with the fault of the T-shaped cable head on the high voltage side?
• Fault manifestations: connector overheating, discharge sound, or fuse failure;
1. Power off and verify the power supply;
2. Disassemble the T-shaped head and check if the insulation layer is carbonized;
3. Replace damaged parts, apply special silicone grease and reinstall.
What is the energy efficiency and losses of the pad mounted transformer?
Energy efficiency standards: refer to NEMA TP-1 or DOE regulations;
Optimization suggestion: Choosing amorphous alloy iron core can reduce no-load loss by 30%~50%.
