Pole-mounted transformers are power distribution transformers that are mounted on a power pole (wood or concrete) and usually horizontal to overhead cables. Pole mounted transformers are common breadbox transformers used for converting distribution voltage to a 120/240 volt power source used by homes and small businesses.
Advantages of a three-phase pole-mounted transformer
The following are the advantages of three-phase pole-mounted transformers over single-phase pole-mounted transformers:
Inexpensive: Three-phase pole-mounted transformers are cheaper compared to buying three single units of single-phase transformers.
Lightweight: Three-phase transformers are smaller in size and more lightweight. With this, they can occupy less space.
Easy Assembly: They are easy to assemble, requiring only minimal time to assemble their parts.
Highly efficient: Three-phase transformers generally supply more electrical power to larger establishment areas.
Easy installation: These distribution transformers are already pre-wired, so the installation process is quick and smooth.
Easy transportation: Because of their lightweight designs, three-phase pole-mounted transformers are very easy to transport. The core of these transformers is made with little materials. Transportation cost is also reduced.
Pole Mounted Transformer Feature
The conventional type of pole mounted transformer is a common type of power transformer that features a circular core and pole mounted windings.
● Compact structure: The conventional type of pole mounted transformer is designed with a circular core and pole mounted windings, resulting in a compact structure.
● High power density: This type of transformer has a high power density.
● Excellent heat dissipation: The pole mounted shape of the transformer enables effective heat dissipation through the pole mounted enclosure, which provides a large surface area.
● Low electromagnetic noise: The closed structure of the circular core in the conventional pole mounted transformer helps to minimize electromagnetic interference and noise.
