Yes and No,
Yes -- for Encapsulated Transformers up to 30kVA three phase and 25 KVA single phase
No -- for Non-Ventilated versions of Ventilated style units. It is not possible to keep the wiring compartment temperature at only a 5 Degrees C rise above a maximum ambient of 40 Degrees C as required for UL.
