Facts

Source per value
Segment Power when the maker publishes power, GSU, HVDC, autotransformer or reactor products or a rating above 20 MVA; Distribution when it publishes distribution, pad-mount, pole-mount, network or dry-type products; both when it publishes each. Derived from Transformer types and Largest rating.
Power and distribution 1
Transformer types Product types the maker lists, separated by semicolons: power, GSU, autotransformer, HVDC, shunt reactor, substation, distribution, pad-mount, pole-mount, network, dry-type (cast resin, VPI), mobile, rectifier/industrial, renewable and data center lines.
power; autotransformer; distribution; amorphous; data center 1
Largest rating MVA Largest verified published rating in the cited product or regional scope, in MVA. Product range identifies base, forced-cooling, phase-shifter throughput or group-history claims; these rating bases are not interchangeable. Planned future ranges are described separately.
500 1
Smallest rating kVA Smallest published rating, in kVA. Shows how far down the distribution range a maker goes.
315 1
Product range The kVA/MVA range as the maker states it, by product line.
Power transformers 5-300 MVA; autotransformers up to 500 MVA; distribution up to 5 MVA; Wilson e4 amorphous up to 3 MVA; d2 unit type 315 kVA-2.5 MVA 1
Highest voltage kV Highest voltage class the maker publishes or has delivered, in kV (AC system voltage; HVDC noted under Voltage classes).
