Product Profile
The Apexto 500 kVA Three-Phase Pad-Mounted Transformer is designed for smaller distribution systems where space, cost control, and practical capacity matching are more important than installing an oversized MVA-class unit. It is well suited to commercial facilities, auxiliary power systems, smaller compute sites, and phased infrastructure projects.
Primary and secondary voltages can be configured around the site's utility supply and downstream equipment requirements, with loop-feed or radial-feed arrangements available for different distribution layouts.
Its compact capacity makes the 500 kVA model easier to integrate into constrained sites while still providing the outdoor enclosure, protection, and serviceability expected from a pad-mounted transformer.
Core Advantages
01. High-Efficiency Radiators
Large external radiator panels maximize surface area for natural oil cooling, maintaining stable thermal performance during continuous 24/7 heavy-duty operations.
02. Auxiliary Control Box
Clearly organized terminals and control components simplify field wiring, commissioning, inspection, troubleshooting, and routine maintenance for faster on-site service and support.
03. Integrated Monitoring Panel
Integrated gauges provide clear temperature, pressure, and operating status information, helping technicians identify abnormal conditions quickly during routine transformer inspections and maintenance.
04. Low-Voltage Connection Panel
Clearly marked X0, X1, X2, and X3 terminals simplify low-voltage cable connections, phase identification, installation, inspection, and routine maintenance in the field.
05. High-Voltage Protection
H1, H2, and H3 terminals combine high-voltage connections with protection and voltage adjustment components, supporting safer installation, operation, inspection, and maintenance.
06. High-Dielectric Bushing Layout
Heavy-duty high-voltage bushings deliver superior electrical insulation and generous clearance, paired with a rugged steel tank built for decades of reliable service.

FAQs
How many amps does a 500 kVA transformer provide at 480V?
A 500 kVA three-phase transformer provides approximately 601A at 480V at full load. This value is used when sizing the secondary breaker, switchboard, cables, and other downstream distribution equipment.
Can a 500 kVA transformer feed an 800A switchboard?
Yes. An 800A switchboard is a practical match for a 500 kVA, 480V transformer because the transformer full-load current is approximately 601A. The final breaker setting should be based on the calculated load and protection design.
How much actual kW can a 500 kVA transformer support?
At a 0.95 power factor, 500 kVA corresponds to approximately 475 kW of real power. Cooling, pumps, controls, and other auxiliary equipment should be included when calculating the total project load.
Can I replace an old 500 kVA pad-mounted transformer without changing the concrete pad?
Often yes. Before ordering, the existing transformer dimensions, pad opening, conduit locations, and primary/secondary connection positions should be checked against the new drawing to confirm a compatible replacement.
Do I need to match the impedance when replacing an existing 500 kVA transformer?
Yes, it should be checked. Transformer impedance affects available fault current and voltage drop. If the existing switchgear and breakers will remain in service, the replacement transformer impedance should be reviewed before production.
Does a 500 kVA pad-mounted transformer need a secondary main breaker?
It depends on the electrical design and applicable code, but secondary conductor and downstream equipment protection must always be confirmed before installation. For replacement projects, Apexto recommends reviewing the existing one-line diagram and protection scheme rather than assuming the old configuration can be reused unchanged.
