Issue:
Seismic Rating of WMB and CMB accessories
Product Line:
LV Transformers
Environment:
Applies to Transformer Wall Mounting Brackets from SquareD/Schneider Electric
Cause:
Transformers must often be wall mounted
Resolution:
None of the wall mounting brackets for the Square D/Schneider Electric transformer product line are seismically rated on their own. The seismic rating of the transformer remains when these accessories are properly installed/bolted to the transformer but the installation/mounting seismic approval would have to be given by the structural engineer or local inspector who will check the conformity of the installation according to local requirements.
