Transformers in a Zoned Area
Transformers in a Zoned Area
(OP)
I have a 7.5MVA 6.6/13.2KV transformer which we need to place in a Zone 2 area (explosive atmosphere - oil/gas).
Will an oil filled transformer be compliant with the ATEX regulations?
Cheers.

An oil filled transformer can be made to comply with the ATEX regulations, but they do not inherently comply. It will be a 'special' and will be fairly expensive.
