For more than 50 years, VanTran has been at the forefront of Padmount Transformer development, driving advancements that power communities and industries worldwide. Our padmount transformers offer unparalleled reliability and performance, ensuring seamless energy distribution even in the most demanding environments.
With sizes and voltages ranging up to 10 MVA and 46 kV primary voltages, the padmount design features high security, three-point latching, pad-lockable double door compartments with full length steel center partitions and security bolts. This ensures tamper-proof construction for use in public and unsecured areas for stepping down voltages from the electrical grid or up into the grid for renewable and battery storage applications.
All transformers from VanTran feature sealed tank construction with welded-on covers and conform to IEEE/ANSI C57.12 standards, where applicable, offering a full range of both dead front and live front components to fit your needs.
