Re: need pole pig advice




What,  no home delivery? Did they ask what it would be used for?
What did you tell them?

|Glenn:
|    Listed below are addresses many of us in the group have used as sources
|for rebuilt pole pigs:

|    The general description that you could use would simply be a 10 Kw.,
|single phase, 14,400 VAC primary, 240 VAC secondary pole pig.  You
|should make sure that it has two high voltage bushings and not one.
|This type of unit has also been purchased at higher primary voltages
|(secondary for us coilers!), but I have the impression that 14,400 VAC
|is about the most common.  I got mine, with the above specs from T&R for
|$290 plus shipping about 8 months ago.  It looked brand new in every
|respect and works great.  The people at T&R were very friendly and
|processed and shipped the order very fast.  The truck arrived (at our
|plant) about 10 days after the order was placed.  You had better start a
|real weight lifting program today or buy a fork lift, in order to be
|ready for your transformers arrival---about 300 lbs!  Good Luck
