What is a residential pad mounted transformer

it is a normal pad mounted transformer, which is installed and used in some residential areas. Generally, It can install a residential pad mounted transformer in every 3-5 buildings, with a capacity of about 400kVA, which make sure the power supply distance less than 100m, and no more than 120 users. Each unit is equipped with an incoming line metering box, which uses directly buried power cables from the box to the unit’s incoming line metering box for radial power supply.

Reasons for choosing this residential pad mounted transformer

With the rapid development of the economy and the continuous improvement of residents’ living standards, household appliances, especially high-power and high power consuming electrical equipment such as air conditioners, rice cookers, and microwaves, are gradually becoming popular in ordinary households. The sharp increase in the electricity load of municipal residents, and the previous power supply facilities cannot meet the current needs of the increase in electricity load for residents, the main problems are as follows:

1. The transformer capacity of the substation and distribution room in the community is generally small, and the original design capacity was only considered to meet the electricity load of residents’ daily lighting, so there is an urgent need to increase the capacity.

2. The distribution equipment is outdated and needs to be updated and renovated. The area of residential transformation and distribution rooms is generally small, which cannot meet the needs of transformer capacity increase and equipment renovation.

3.With the years of construction and continuous improvement of various public facilities in residential communities, there is currently no suitable place to rebuild a power transformation and distribution room in the community to meet the growing demand of residents’ daily electricity load.

In response to the above issues, most of our newly built residential projects now use residential pad mounted transformer to prevent the occurrence of these problems.

residential pad mounted transformer, here we refer to single or three phase pad mounted transformers used in some communities. In these area, it has a lot buildings in a very limited land and living in a large number of human beings, having a large power consumption. How to resolve this complicated issue. Some agile guys this pad mounted transformer, which integrated HV & LV bushing, current limiter, loadbreak switch is a very compact space, thus will save your space to install the transformer,  assuring a safe & continuous  high quality power supply; due to its modular design, it is flexible to select a place to install, and it is friendly to local environment.

Drawing on its enclosed design, it is moisture & dust proof; once it is installed, it is very hard to remove it, which has a strong perforamnce of anti-theft.

Advantages of using this residential pad mounted transformer

In fact, the use of  pad mounted transformer in residential areas is just one of the many application scenarios . Nowadays, various pad mounted transformers have been used in various industries, such as industrial zones, school campus, hospitals, super-markets and other commercial & industrial buildings.

In deed, there are some adavantages to use this residential pad mounted transformers.

Firstly, compared to traditional electrical substations, residential pad mounted transformer occupy a smaller area. As the land occupied is smaller, as a developer, more land can be used for other constructions, and residents also have more places to relax.

Secondly, this residential pad mounted transformer can be customized. Personalized customization refers to the ability to fit  the appearance according to the specific environment of the community, in order to highly integrate the transformer with the surrounding environment, making it very unified and beautiful.

Tirdly, the procurement and investment cost of this residential pad mounted transformer is low; and the transformer is highly integrated and small in size , thus will save the costs and land for developers. Compared to traditional electrical substations,  this residential pad mounted transformers are naturally much cheaper and therefore favored.
