Overview

The Hammond Power MG3A1500SPSCHC0 is a 1500 kVA, single-phase, medium voltage, dry-type distribution transformer designed for exceptional energy efficiency and reliability. This unit is compliant with DOE 2016 and NRCan 2019 energy efficiency regulations, ensuring reduced operational costs and environmental impact. It features a 4160V primary (Delta) and a 600Y/347V secondary (Wye) configuration, operating at 60 Hz. The transformer is built with copper wound coils, offering superior conductivity and lower energy losses for enhanced performance and longevity. Rated for the 1.2kV to 5kV class, it meets stringent industry standards including CSA C22.2 No. 47, UL 1562, DOE 10 CFR PART 431, and NRCan SOR/2018-201 Amd. 14. The enclosure style is DH10, providing robust protection in industrial and commercial settings. Approximate dimensions are 78.0 inches [1982 mm] in width, 55.0 inches [1397 mm] in depth, and 86.0 inches [2185 mm] in height, with an approximate weight of 9800 lbs [4446 kg]. This transformer is designed for floor mounting (F) and is equipped with a standard Type 3R enclosure, suitable for outdoor applications. It also features factory-installed grounding lugs, outward-facing mounting holes for installer convenience, and separate high and low voltage terminal boards for safe and easy wiring. The MG3A1500SPSCHC0 is ideal for medium-voltage power distribution in facilities requiring dependable voltage transformation and energy savings, such as industrial plants, commercial buildings, and utility substations. Its VPI (Vacuum Pressure Impregnation) insulation system ensures high dielectric strength and thermal stability.
