2. Distribution transformer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_transformer

   Pole-mounted transformers may have lugs allowing direct mounting to a pole or may be mounted on cross-arms bolted to the pole. Aerial transformers, larger than around 75 kVA, may be mounted on a platform supported by one or more poles. [13] A three-phase service may use three identical transformers, one per phase. Transformers designed for ...

3. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

   Pole-mounted single-phase transformer with three-wire center-tapped "split-phase" secondary. On the three secondary terminals, the center tap is grounded with a short strap to the transformer case. A split-phase or single-phase three-wire system is a type of single-phase electric power distribution.

4. Low-voltage network - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-voltage_network

   A pole-mounted three-phase distribution transformer. Low-voltage feeders distributing power to households are placed below the transformer. A low-voltage network or secondary network is a part of electric power distribution which carries electric energy from distribution transformers to electricity meters of end customers.

5. Per-unit system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Per-unit_system

   By choosing the base quantities in this manner, the transformer can be effectively removed from the circuit as described above. For example: Take a transformer that is rated at 10 kVA and 240/100 V. The secondary side has an impedance equal to 1∠0° Ω. The base impedance on the secondary side is equal to:

6. Electric power industry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_power_industry

   A 50 kVA pole-mounted distribution transformer Electric power distribution is the final stage in the delivery of electric power ; it carries electricity from the transmission system to individual consumers.

7. Service drop - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_drop

   The secondary winding of the transformer provides 240 volts between its ends and is center tapped. The service drop, to a weatherhead on the premises being supplied, is made up of a neutral line connected to the transformer's center tap and two lines connected to the ends of the winding which provide 120V with respect to the neutral line.

8. Transformer types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_types

   A leakage transformer, also called a stray-field transformer, has a significantly higher leakage inductance than other transformers, sometimes increased by a magnetic bypass or shunt in its core between primary and secondary, which is sometimes adjustable with a set screw. This provides a transformer with an inherent current limitation due to ...

9. Pad-mounted transformer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pad-mounted_transformer

   Pad-mount transformers operate on medium-voltage distribution systems, up to about 35 kV. The low-voltage winding matches the customer requirement and may be single-phase or three-phase. Pad-mount transformers are (nearly always) oil-filled units and so must be mounted outdoors only. The core and coils are enclosed in a steel oil-filled tank ...
