1.1 These requirements cover:
1.General purpose and power transformers of the air-cooled, dry, ventilated, and nonventilated types rated no more than 500 kVA single-phase or no more
than 1500 kVA three-phase to be used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. Constructions include step up, step down, insulating, and
autotransformer type transformers as well as air-cooled and dry-type reactors or
2.General purpose and power transformers of the exposed core, air-cooled, dry, and compound-filled types rated more than 10 kVA but no more than 333
kVA single-phase or no more than 1000 kVA three-phase to be used in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. Constructions include step
up, step down, insulating, and autotransformer type transformers as well as air-cooled, dry, and compound-filled type reactors.
1.2 These requirements do not cover ballasts for high intensity discharge (HID) lamps (metal halide, mercury vapor, and sodium types) or fluorescent lamps, exposed
core transformers, compound-filled transformers, liquid-filled transformers, voltage regulators, general use or special types of transformers covered in requirements
for other electrical equipment, autotransformers forming part of industrial control equipment, motor-starting autotransformers, variable voltage autotransformers,
transformers having a nominal primary or secondary rating of more than 600 volts, or overvoltage taps rated greater than 660 volts.
1.3 These requirements do not cover transformers provided with waveshaping or rectifying circuitry. Waveshaping or rectifying circuits may include components such
as diodes and transistors. Components such as capacitors, transient voltage surge suppressors, and surge arresters are not considered to be waveshaping or
rectifying devices.
