Transformer Cost Estimate

Transformer Cost Estimate

Transformer Cost Estimate

(OP)
I would like to find out the cost (ball park) of a 10MVA, 34.5kV/4.16kV transformer.  Shipping and Installation estimate, if available.  What is the failure rate of transformers with this rating?  What is the lead time to acquire one?

Any help is appreciated.

RE: Transformer Cost Estimate

Call the G.E. Rep in your area. They will supply the info you need. You might do a Google search for Transformer Mfg.
and get several prices. They will be different.

RE: Transformer Cost Estimate

Bids I have taken recently for similar units were approximately $170K including shipping and installation. Prices will vary depending on your specifications and loss evaluation.

The failure rate listed in the Gold Book is 0.013.

Thank you for your replies.  

Wareagle: I contacted the GE Rep. and another vendor in my area and I got a quote.

Jnims:  Thanks for providing the approximate cost for a similar project and for directing me to the Gold Book.

Thanks again!
