The 800 kVA epoxy resin cast dry type transformer is engineered for step-up duty in renewable energy projects. It converts 400 V low voltage from solar inverters or wind turbine generators to 20 kV medium voltage, enabling efficient connection to site collection lines and integration with the local grid. This three-phase cast resin unit eliminates liquid insulation, providing a cleaner, safer, and maintenance-friendly solution for photovoltaic and wind farm substations.

In utility-scale photovoltaic and wind power plants, the transformer connects 400 V inverter outputs or generator terminals to a 20 kV collector network. Our design addresses the unique operating stresses of clean energy generation:
Cast resin transformers remove the risk of oil leaks and fire, which is critical when equipment sits close to inverters, battery containers, or vegetation. They also require no oil containment pit, lowering civil costs and environmental liability.
The 400 V winding utilizes a reinforced neutral bar and careful conductor transposition to suppress circulating harmonic currents. Combined with high-temperature insulation, it safely absorbs extra heating without accelerated aging.
Yes. Standard models are rated for up to 1000 m altitude and 40°C ambient. We provide specially rated units for sites above 4000 m and in 55°C environments, adjusting creepage distances and cooling accordingly.
Under normal conditions, only periodic visual inspection, cleaning of ventilation grills, and checking of cooling fans (if fitted) are necessary. There is no oil sampling, filtering, or regasketing required throughout its service life.
A weatherproof IP44 enclosure with anti-corrosion coating shields the core and windings from rain, dust, and UV exposure. Internal forced air cooling with thermostatic control maintains safe temperatures even in strong sunlight.
It is manufactured to meet IEC 60076-11 as a minimum, and can be customized to satisfy national grid codes regarding short-circuit impedance, voltage regulation, and partial discharge limits for renewable energy interconnection.
