General Description
Ritz manufactures an extensive line of cast epoxy resin
insulated transformers across the voltage range of 5.5 kV
to 72.5 kV. This brochure describes outdoor Voltage Trans-
formers in the 15kV class with performance ratings coincid-
ing with industry standard product offerings. Ritz, because
of product depth, familiarity with international standards
and custom design capability can also design a solution to
your specific needs.

Construction
The core and coil assembly is encapsulated in cycloaliphat-
ic epoxy resin in a single process, performed under vacuum,
using the pressure gelation method. The resin color is grey. Base Plate
Brown is available by special order. Epoxy resin was chosen The base is made of marine grade aluminum and is se-
because of its excellent tracking resistance, high mechanical curely attached to the transformer body. Industry standard
