Overview

The Hammond Power MG3A0030RKSAHC0 is a 30 kVA, single-phase, dry-type medium voltage distribution transformer designed for general-purpose industrial and commercial applications. This transformer features a primary voltage rating of 2400V and a secondary voltage rating of 480Y/277V, making it ideal for step-down power distribution in facilities requiring medium voltage input with low-voltage output. Constructed with aluminum windings, the MG3A0030RKSAHC0 delivers high conductivity and thermal efficiency while eliminating the need for oil containment, simplifying installation and maintenance in environments where oil-filled transformers are impractical. The transformer is designed for single-phase medium voltage distribution, with a primary voltage BIL rating of 20 kV and a secondary voltage BIL rating of 10 kV. Its robust construction meets UL, CSA, and NEMA standards, ensuring reliable performance in demanding electrical systems. The transformer's dry-type construction provides inherent safety advantages, including reduced fire risk and simplified installation without secondary containment requirements. Its medium voltage capabilities enable efficient power distribution over longer distances, minimizing voltage drop and power loss. The aluminum wound design ensures durability and long service life, while the convection-cooled operation eliminates the need for active cooling systems, reducing maintenance requirements and operational costs. This transformer is part of Hammond Power's MG3A series, recognized for reliability in medium voltage distribution systems. Its SKU MG3A0030RKSAHC0 and UNSPSC code 39121001 identify it as a general-purpose medium voltage distribution transformer suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
