2.9MVA 3-15kV Transformer Unit

Transformers

The transformers are housed at each end of the enclosure and

accessed by double doors. The base of the enclosure transformer
section is continuously welded to form a ‘Bund’ in the event of
cooling oil leakage.

Additional cooling is provided by fans mounted in the side of the

enclosure.

Protection device for the transformer and access doors are wired to
the control panel.
