    The company has strong technical strength, has more than 50 professional and technical personnel, and has formed a technical team with technicians, engineers, and chief engineers responsible for each level.

    The advantage of pad mounted transformer:

    1. Because the internal structure of the box type transformer is arranged reasonably, the space occupied is small.
    2. The operation method of box type transformer is very simple, convenient and convenient for rapid assembly.
    3. The application income of box type transformer is high.
    4. The combination mode of box type transformer is flexible.New, reconditioned, or custom-built options are available for every application.
    5. Proven: Provide safe, reliable power output in public space.
    6. Lower costs for installation upfront and promote increased savings.
    7. Customizable: From one to 1000 units, we build to spec for commercial & industrial use.

    The disdvantage of pad mounted transformer:

    • Most of the box type transformers are located in the residential core area and on both sides of the road. The noise and dust pollution caused by the construction will have a certain impact on the urban environment and the normal life of residents.
    • The traditional cast-in-place concrete foundation construction requires the excavation of municipal facilities and the placement of building materials, which will inevitably occupy a large construction site, bring inconvenience to the traffic, and is not conducive to the normal travel of residents.
    • According to the traditional method, it generally takes about 12 days from the foundation construction to the completion of the installation of the box type transformer. The construction time is too long, which is not conducive to large-scale use.
    • During the foundation excavation and curing period of the traditional cast-in-place concrete foundation, if the warning signs are unclear or the safety fence is damaged, the nearby residents and pedestrians may enter the construction site by mistake, which may cause personal injury and increase the safety risk.

    If it is a box type transformer capacity expansion and reconstruction project, the power outage time is too long, which will have a serious impact on the basic domestic power consumption of residents.

    If the space where your transformer will be installed has one or more of the following conditions:

    • Outdoors
    • Underground connections
    • All weather conditions
    • Sealed tank construction due to air quality issues or temperature fluctuations
    • Public space with foot traffic
    • Stand alone

    • Green color.
    • Lockable doors up front.
    • Cable in from underneath the front compartment.
    • HV & LV bushings both on the front side of the tank behind the lockable doors and separated by a steel HV-LV barrier.
    • Tamperproof and stand-alone (not part of a line-up).
    • Outdoors applications.  You will see them behind restaurants or malls or universities (anywhere there are people milling about).
