Introduction
For a project, a distribution point usually means three separate purchases: a high-voltage switch, a transformer and a low-voltage panel, plus a room or enclosure for them. This electrical padmount substation replaces them with one outdoor unit that carries the HV control and protection, the oil-immersed transformer and the LV distribution gear.

It sits in the Transformer Substation category as Gangheng's American-style box unit. Its footprint is about 1/3 to 1/5 of a same-capacity domestic European-style box substation, according to the manufacturer's comparison. Related model page: Pad Mounted Substation.
Made at Gangheng's Jiangshan, Zhejiang plant, which uses CNC punching, CNC bending, laser cutting and copper busbar bending machines and tests its own products.
What Is Inside One Unit
Specifications for an oil filled pad mounted transformer are driven by losses and temperature rise. The table lists the Gangheng series, with the brochure's international-series reference values for comparison:
|
Section |
Main Components |
|
High-voltage |
Load switch, bayonet-type fuse, lightning arrester, elbow cable connector |
|
Transformer |
Fully sealed oil tank, off-circuit tap changer, oil and temperature monitoring |
|
Low-voltage |
Main switch, branch switches, optional reactive compensation, LV bushings |
Low-Voltage Schemes
In any electrical padmount substation the low-voltage side decides how loads are fed. Eight schemes are offered:
|

These are catalog schemes. Not every switch, metering and compensation element can be freely combined; we confirm the final configuration against your load and wiring.
The HV side has four supply options (terminal, dual-source, ring network with dual-source, HV metering)
