Introduction
Howard Industries Mobile Power
transformers are specially designed
for use with mobile power systems
and are the ideal choice for applications requiring step-up transformation
and interconnection with an electrical distribution grid. These rugged
transformers can take all the abuse
a transportable system typically
receives. They are specially designed
and equipped for the rental power
market, with many valuable features
that improve portability and increase
exibility for use with different grid
voltages.
Contact the factory or your local
Howard Industries representative for
more information about our Mobile
Power transformer line and about the
many custom solutions we can offer.

14400 volts delta, with taps at
13800, 13200, 12870, 12470,
12000, and 11700 volts.
Optional high-voltage ratings from
2400 through 19920 volts
• Standard low-voltage rating:
480Y/277 volts.
Optional low-voltage ratings from
120 through 600 volts
• Standard frequency: 60 Hertz.
Optional frequency: 50 Hertz

Unit Substation Designs
In addition to the standard padmounted compartmental design
previously described, Mobile
Power transformers can also be
supplied in a unit substation design
(Figure 2), available with a variety
of different high-voltage and lowvoltage termination interfaces, such
as full-height anges, throats, or air
terminal compartments. Substation
transformers are available in
capacities through 10,000 kVA, with
high-voltage ratings up to 69 kV.
