IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards Coordinating Committees of the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The IEEE develops its standards through a consensus development process, approved by the American National Standards Institute, which brings together volunteers representing varied viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of the Institute and serve without compensation. While the IEEE administers the process and establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus development process, the IEEE does not independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the information or the soundness of any judgments contained in its standards. Use of an IEEE Standard is wholly voluntary. The IEEE disclaims liability for any personal injury, property or other damage, of any nature whatsoever, whether special, indirect, consequential, or compensatory, directly or indirectly resulting from the publication, use of, or reliance upon this, or any other IEEE Standard document. The IEEE does not warrant or represent the accuracy or content of the material contained herein, and expressly disclaims any express or implied warranty, including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a specific purpose, or that the use of the material contained herein is free from patent infringement. IEEE Standards documents are supplied “AS IS.” The existence of an IEEE Standard does not imply that there are no other ways to produce, test, measure, purchase, market, or provide other goods and services related to the scope of the IEEE Standard. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at the time a standard is approved and issued is subject to change brought about through developments in the state of the art and comments received from users of the standard. Every IEEE Standard is subjected to review at least every five years for revision or reaffirmation, or every ten years for stabilization. When a document is more than five years old and has not been reaffirmed, or more than ten years old and has not been stabilized, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although still of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to check to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE Standard. In publishing and making this document available, the IEEE is not suggesting or rendering professional or other services for, or on behalf of, any person or entity. Nor is the IEEE undertaking to perform any duty owed by any other person or entity to another. Any person utilizing this, and any other IEEE Standards document, should rely upon his or her independent judgment in the exercise of reasonable care in any given circumstances or, as appropriate, seek the advice of a competent professional in determining the appropriateness of a given IEEE standard. Interpretations: Occasionally questions may arise regarding the meaning of portions of standards as they relate to specific applications. When the need for interpretations is brought to the attention of IEEE, the Institute will initiate action to prepare appropriate responses. Since IEEE Standards represent a consensus of concerned interests, it is important to ensure that any interpretation has also received the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason, IEEE and the members of its societies and Standards Coordinating Committees are not able to provide an instant response to interpretation requests except in those cases where the matter has previously received formal consideration. A statement, written or oral, that is not processed in accordance with the IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual shall not be considered the official position of IEEE or any of its committees and shall not be considered to be, nor be relied upon as, a formal interpretation of the IEEE. At lectures, symposia, seminars, or educational courses, an individual presenting information on IEEE standards shall make it clear that his or her views should be considered the personal views of that individual rather than the formal position, explanation, or interpretation of the IEEE. Comments for revision of IEEE Standards are welcome from any interested party, regardless of membership affiliation with IEEE. Suggestions for changes in documents should be in the form of a proposed change of text, together with appropriate supporting comments. Recommendations to change the status of a stabilized standard should include a rationale as to why a revision or withdrawal is required. Comments and recommendations on standards should be addressed to: Secretary, IEEE-SA Standards Board 445 Hoes Lane Piscataway, NJ 08854-4141 USA Authorization to photocopy portions of any individual standard for internal or personal use is granted by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc., provided that the appropriate fee is paid to Copyright Clearance Center.

IEEE Std C57.148-2011 IEEE Standard for Control Cabinets for Power Transformers 4. Cabinet-ordering specifications This standard includes requirements that are intended to provide a basic, standard design. This standard also provides options on many aspects of the design and construction. Additionally, the user may specify and require other options. A sample ordering form is included in Annex B to provide a convenient and complete method of communicating the purchaser’s selection of standard design, standard options or users’ options for all aspects of the control cabinet. 5. Standard cabinet construction 5.1 General The following standard cabinet construction requirements shall apply to all control cabinets covered under this standard. Note that references herein to the National Electric Code® (NEC®) (NFPA 70®) are not intended to include the complete NEC as a normative reference. All references to the NEC in this standard are specific to the topic covered in the clauses containing the references only, and any other NEC requirements not referenced in this document do not apply to control cabinets covered under this standard. 5.2 Cabinet-housing criteria Unless specified otherwise, the complete cabinet shall be constructed for outdoor use to meet or exceed the NEMA 3R designation as detailed in NEMA 250. For special application environments such as corrosive or chemical atmospheres, marine or explosion proof requirements, the appropriate NEMA or IEC designations shall be specified by the user. The NEMA Type performance requirements are defined in NEMA 250 “Enclosures for Electrical Equipment (1000 Volts Maximum)”. The IEC designations are defined in IEC 60529 “Degrees of Protection Provided by Enclosures (IP)”. Cabinets with gross weight greater than 20 kg (44.1 lb) shall have provisions for lifting and a sufficient number of external tabs for the purpose of bolting to the transformer. Additional external brackets for mounting gauges shall be specified by the transformer manufacturer or user. Cabinet mounting provisions must meet the specified requirements of the user or supplier, respectively, depending on who orders the cabinet from the manufacturer. One such requirement is the ability to accommodate vibration suppressors or similar mounting hardware. Unless specified otherwise by the user or supplier, the control cabinet designer should design the cabinet to be mounted on the transformer with not less than a 200 mm (7.9 in) air space between the back of the cabinet and the transformer tank wall. 5.3 Cabinet dimensions Cabinet height and depth shall be such that all switches, circuit breakers, fuses, device display panels, and all similar components that require operation, adjustment, or inspection during normal operation can be comfortably reached by a person of average height (approximately 1.7 m, or 5 ft 7 in) when standing at the plane of the door. The mounted location of the control cabinet should be determined by the supplier based on user specifications, transformer foundation design, shipping limitations, and other considerations. Unless otherwise specified by the user, the bottom of the control cabinet shall not be less than 0.5 m (19.7 in) above 4 Copyright © 2012 IEEE. All rights reserved.

IEEE Std C57.148-2011 IEEE Standard for Control Cabinets for Power Transformers the location where a worker, standing in front of the control cabinet on the ground or on a work platform when the transformer is set on its foundation, and shall not be below the base of the transformer. Unless specified otherwise by the user, the control cabinet designer shall assume that the elevation of the location where a technician would stand in front of the control cabinet in order to work in the cabinet shall be the same elevation as the base of the transformer. 5.4 Cabinet construction materials Cabinets, doors, and hardware shall be of sturdy construction, and capable of operation under usual service conditions for transformers as specified in IEEE Std C57.12.00 for the expected life of the transformer, without bending or warping. Unless specified otherwise by the user, all cabinets shall be constructed of cold-rolled carbon steel with the minimum sheet metal thickness, based on the overall outside cabinet dimensions with doors closed, as shown in Table 1. Table 1 —Sheet metal thickness requirements Length Height Minimum sheet metal thickness Not greater than 762 mm (30 in), and Not greater than 762 mm (30 in) 1.51 mm (0.0598 in or 16 gauge) Greater than 762 mm (30 in) but not greater than 1524 mm (60 in), or Greater than 762 mm (30 in) but not greater than 1219 mm (48 in) 1.90 mm (0.0747 in or 14 gauge) Greater than 1524 mm (60 in), or Greater than 1219 mm (48 in) 2.67 mm (0.105 in or 12 gauge) Note that the minimum sheet metal thickness shall apply if either the length or the height, or both length and height, fall within the dimensional range for that sheet metal thickness. For example, a cabinet with a length of 700 mm and a height of 700 mm would require a minimum 1.51 mm sheet metal thickness. A cabinet with a length of 700 mm and a height of 800 mm would require a minimum 1.9 mm sheet metal thickness (see Table 1). For special environmental applications where carbon steel cabinets are not suitable, either the environmental conditions or other materials, such as stainless steel, aluminum, polymeric, or special coatings, must be specified by the user. 5.5 Compartment styles and welding Unless specified otherwise by the user or chosen by the control cabinet designer, cabinets shall have a single compartment with one or two doors. If user specifications require isolated cabinet sections, or if the control cabinet designer chooses to provide isolated sections, cabinets may be constructed with internal compartments separated by steel barriers, with doors for each compartment. All external metal joints and seams shall be fully welded to prevent trapped water and corrosion. Intermittent welds on internal metal joints are acceptable, provided the metal surface preparation and finish coatings protect exposed metal from corrosion. 5 Copyright © 2012 IEEE.

IEEE Std C57.148-2011 IEEE Standard for Control Cabinets for Power Transformers 5.6 Rain sheds The cabinet shall be constructed to minimize the ingress of water from the cabinet top when the doors are opened. Acceptable solutions include a sloped cabinet top or shield above the cabinet top to shed rainwater away from the doors toward the back of the cabinet, or a water guard or barrier fitted to the front edge of the cover or doorways. 5.7 Fixed back and side panels To minimize the number of penetrations through the cabinet shell, controls components shall not be mounted directly to the inner surfaces of the cabinet. Components shall be mounted on rigid steel panels with a thickness not less than the cabinet material thickness that are attached to and spaced a minimum of 12 mm (0.5 in) from the inner side or back walls of the cabinet. Openings and holes in the fixed panels shall be suitable for the secure mounting of components such as relays, components, terminals, and DIN rail. 5.8 Swing panels If additional panel surface is needed for mounting controls components, or if components need to be mounted on a panel inside the cabinet, swing panels may be used. Swing panels are flat steel panels vertically hinged and attached to the inside walls of the cabinet.
