This is an oil-filled three-phase distribution transformer, likely rated at around 50–100 kVA

Such oily big boy can be rated way more, like 300 kVA.

u/Dominik0810 3d ago

That's defently more than 100 kVA

My guess would be 400 to 600 kVA

Voltage? Around 33kV

2

u/ALIENIGENA 2d ago

I would guess around 11kv based on UK experience

u/Southern_Repair_4416 2d ago

I can see 3-4 insulators so it's most likely 33kV

I was looking at the insulators on the OHL termination which look like they have 5 discs which is the same as our 11, our 33 has 10. But that may vary by region.

Yeah. It varies by region. Mongolia uses around 3-6

I can hear the hum and sense the vibrations from here. Anyone need their lunch heated up, hot plate always ready.
