RE: [TCML] looking for a smaller pole transformer...

["Jim Mora" <wavetuner@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Chris,

Actually, most of the PT metering transformer (that control the switch
banks) around here are mini pole pigs and look just like them. I have a
mongo PT in my HV cabinet that is a potted type horizontal helical wound
type.

I bought a 5KVA Pole transformer and it was every bit as big and heavy as a
10 or 15KVA.

>From what I have read here, they are designed to be very efficient and
usually drive street lighting which is the only place I have seen one in
use.

Is there any way to trouble shoot the 5KVA? That would gain my attention!
What have you got to loose?

Best,
Jim Mora

Hey Gary, probably, yes. The PT's are potted though and not in oil. I have a

non-functional 5kva transformer which is substantially lighter and smaller 
than my 10. I wish the 5 was the wokring one!
