What is the gauge on steel used for the cover, front and side panels, and base of ventilated dry transformer 600V and below, 15KVA through 500KVA?

Issue:
Material used on the Dry transformers up to 500kVA.

Product Line:
Dry Type Transformers.

Environment:
Product Characteristics.

Resolution:
Because different types of transformers of similar kVA ratings may be in different enclosures, this question is answered in terms of enclosure number, rather than kVA.  The information below also pertains to non-ventilated transformers by enclosure number.  The D or E suffix on the enclosure number simply denotes ventilated (D) or non-ventilated (E).

Enclosures #s 17, 18, 19, and 20 use:
Sides and Top:  14 gauge
Front and Rear:  16 gauge
Base:  12 gauge

Enclosures #s 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 28, 29, and 30 use:
Sides and Top:  14 gauge
Front and Rear:  16 gauge
Base:  3 piece base with (2) 7 gauge channels and a 14 gauge pan
