Active Standard

IEEE C57.12.38-2014

IEEE Standard for Pad-Mounted-Type, Self-Cooled, Single-Phase Distribution Transformers 250 kVA and Smaller: High Voltage, 34 500 GrdY/19 920 V and Below; Low Voltage, 480/240 V and Below

Certain electrical, dimensional, and mechanical characteristics are covered in this standard, and certain safety features of single-phase, 60-Hz, mineral-oil-immersed, self-cooled, pad-mounted, compartmental-type distribution transformers are taken into consideration. These transformers are rated 250 kVA and smaller with high voltages of 34 500 GrdY/19 920 V and below and with low voltages of 480/240 V and below. These transformers are generally used for step-down purposes from an underground primary cable supply. The connector, bushing, and terminal arrangements for radial or loop feed systems are covered in this standard. The electrical and mechanical requirements of any accessory devices that may be supplied with the transformer are not covered in this standard.

PC57.12.38

IEEE Draft Standard for Pad-Mounted-Type, Self-Cooled, Single-Phase Distribution Transformers 250 kVA and Smaller: High Voltage, 34 500 GrdY/19 920 V and Below; Low Voltage, 480/240 V and Below

Certain electrical, dimensional, and mechanical characteristics are covered in this standard, and certain safety features of single-phase, 60 Hz, mineral-oil-immersed, self-cooled, pad-mounted, compartmental-type distribution transformers are taken into consideration. These transformers are rated 250 kVA and smaller, with high voltages of 34 500 GrdY/19 920 V and below, and with low voltages of 480/240 V and below. These transformers are generally used for step-down purposes from an underground primary cable supply. The connector, bushing, and terminal arrangements for radial or loop feed systems are covered in this standard. The electrical and mechanical requirements of any accessory devices that may be supplied with the transformer are not covered in this standard.

C57.12.38-2014/Cor 1-2016

IEEE Standard for Pad-Mounted-Type, Self-Cooled, Single-Phase Distribution Transformers 250 kVA and Smaller: High Voltage, 34 500 GrdY/19 920 V and Below; Low Voltage, 480/240 V and Below - Corrigendum 1: Figure 1A

Identified in the 2014 published version of IEEE Std C57.12.38 is an error. Tw0 dimensions were provided for the high-voltage bushing height above the base of the transformer. The lower dimension (597+114/-13) should have been designated as being for units 167 kVA and 250 kVA only. The error is corrected in this corrigendum.

These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.


C57.12.25

Standard for Pad-Mounted, Compartmental-Type, Self-Cooled, Single-Phase Distribution Transformers with Separable Insulated High-Voltage Connectors; High Voltage, 34500 GrdY/19920 Volts and Below, Low Voltage, 240/120 Volts; 167 kVA and Smaller - Requirements

This product standard covers certain electrical, dimensional, and mechanical characteristics and safety features of single phase, 60 Hz mineral oil filled, self-cooled, pad-mounted, compartmental type distribution transformer with separable insulated high-voltage connectors. Transformers are rated 167 kVA and smaller with high voltage of 34500 GrdY/19 920 Volts and below for operation between one phase and grounded neutral and low voltages of 240/120V.

C57.12.38-2009

IEEE Standard for Pad-Mounted-Type, Self-Cooled, Single-Phase Distribution Transformers; High Voltage, 34 500 GrdY/19 920 V and Below, Low Voltage, 240/120 V; 167 kVA and Smaller

This standard covers certain electrical, dimensional, mechanical characteristics and safety requirements of single-phase, 60 Hz, liquid-filled, self-cooled, padmounted, compartmental-type distribution transformers. These transformers are rated 167 kVA and smaller, with the high voltages of 34 500 GrdY/19 920 V and below for operation between one phase and grounded neutral, and low voltage of 240/120 V. These transformers are generally used for step-down purposes from an underground primary cable supply. This standard covers the connector, bushing, and terminal arrangements for radial or loop feed systems. This standard does not cover the electrical and mechanical requirements of any accessory devices that may be supplied with the transformer.

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


C57.12.25-1990

American National Standard for Transformers--Pad-Mounted, Compartmental-Type, Self-Cooled, Single-Phase Distribution Transformers with Separable Insulated High-Voltage Connectors: High Voltage (34 500 GrdY/19 920 Volts and Below) and Low-Voltage (240/120 Volts; 167 kVA and Smaller)

This standard covers certain electrical, dimensional, and mechanical characteristics, and takes into consideration certain safety features of single-phase, 60-Hz, mineral-oil-immersed, self-cooled, pad-mounted, compartmental-type distribution transformers with separable insulated high-voltage connectors. These transformers are rated 167 kVA and smaller, with high voltages of 34500 GrdY/19 920 volts and below for operation between one phase and grounded neutral, and low voltages of 240/120 volts. These transformers are generally used for step-down purposes from an underground primary cable supply.
