15 kVA transformer with 480 V primary and 120/240 V secondary delivers sufficient headroom for critical loads, reducing the need for multiple transformers and simplifying panel design. The result is faster installation, lower lifecycle costs, and improved system reliability in automotive, process, and general manufacturing environments. The aluminum coil supports lighter weight with robust thermal performance, contributing to easier handling and long-term energy efficiency in demanding facilities. A 2 at -5% FCBN tap allows precise voltage regulation to stabilize sensitive electronics, enhancing equipment life and reducing nuisance tripping in fluctuating power conditions. 2D wiring connection simplifies field terminations and reduces commissioning time, while the NEMA 3R enclosure and UL Listed certification ensure safe indoor-outdoor operation and regulatory compliance across industrial plants. The design supports compatible retrofit into existing power-distribution layouts with minimal enclosure changes, delivering a compact footprint without sacrificing performance or protection.
