THREE PHASE POLE MOUNTED DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMER 

INSTRUCTION  

MANUAL #105 

 

MAINTENANCE 

A periodic visual inspec on of the transformer is recommended. At 
such  mes, the general condi on of the following should be noted: 
1. 

High voltage bushings 

2. 

Low voltage bushings 

3. 

Arresters (if provided) 

4. 

Evidence of oil leakage 

5. Ground 

connec ons 

6. Accessories 
7. Safety 

labels. 

 
Where tanks show evidence of rus ng or deteriora on of the 

fi

nish, 

they may be cleaned and then retouched with paint. It is necessary to 
remove all loose paint and rust by wire brushing, scraping, or sanding, 
and clean with a good solvent. Apply an acrylic lacquer, alkyd enamel, 
two part urethane or silicone alkyd primer, allow to dry, and then 
apply a color matched compa ble top coat and allow to dry. 
 
If metal is rusted to the point of being weak such that the tank 
integrity can be compromised, repair or replace the part rather than 
pain ng it. 
 

REPLACEMENT PARTS 

Replacement parts are available from ERMCO. When ordering parts, 
give a complete descrip on of the part. Also, give the kVA, voltage,

the nameplate.
