In what positions can a general purpose low voltage dry type transformer be mounted?

Issue:
Positions in which a general purpose low voltage dry type transformer can be mounted

Product Line:
LV Transformers

Environment:
Applies to all Low Voltage (LV) Dry Type Transformers by SquareD/Schneider Electric

Cause:
Installation / Setup

Resolution:
Ventilated transformers may only be mounted upright - PERIOD!

Encapsulated transformers must be mounted upright to maintain the enclosure`s NEMA rating of 3R. They may be mounted on their back, but then the enclosure only has a NEMA 1 rating. The encapsulated transformer may NOT be mounted upside down.
