ZGS-Z-5000-12.47-0.69
This three-phase pad mounted transformer with a rated capacity of 5000kVA features a primary voltage of 12.47kV and a secondary voltage of 690V, designed and manufactured in strict accordance with IEEE standards for outdoor installation. Adopting a core-type structure and filled with 25# mineral insulating oil (PCB FREE), it is equipped with an ONAN cooling system, suitable for outdoor working conditions with an altitude of 1000m and ambient temperature of 20℃.
Ideal for high-to-low voltage power transmission scenarios such as industrial power distribution and commercial parks, the transformer delivers stable performance, excellent protection, complete accessories and rigorous factory testing, ensuring reliable and efficient power supply for various applications.

Our radial feed pad-mounted transformer reduces upfront infrastructure costs by ~25% compared to loop feed alternatives, with simplified cabling requirements and no complex switching gear. The high-efficiency core minimizes no-load and load losses, reducing ongoing energy expenses and delivering a faster return on investment for your distribution project.
With a footprint 35% smaller than comparable loop feed models, this pad-mounted transformer is ideal for space-constrained urban, residential, and commercial sites. The fully integrated, ground-level design fits easily on a compact concrete pad, with no need for additional civil construction or fenced security perimeters.
Engineered to withstand harsh outdoor conditions, our transformer features a corrosion-resistant steel enclosure, tamper-proof locking mechanisms, and wildlife-resistant design, with a 30-40 year design life. It resists weather, vandalism, and environmental damage, ensuring consistent, reliable power distribution with minimal unplanned downtime.
The plug-and-play radial feed design enables full installation and commissioning in just 6-8 hours, with only a concrete pad and electrical connections required. Ground-level access simplifies routine maintenance and inspections, with 50% fewer inspection points than loop feed models, reducing long-term operational costs and service downtime.
