Abstract: A transformer having diagonally disposed high voltage bushings and core assembly provides a transformer of smaller size than other transformers of a given voltage rating, and a transformer capable of being installed adjacent other transformers of the same construction in a minimum amount of space while maintaining a minimum permissible clearance between the bushing conductors of adjacent transformers.

Abstract: A dry-type instrument transformer having a potential tap in the form of a well molded into the body of the transformer. A female conductor terminal is provided inside the well connected to the high voltage winding of the transformer. A connector in the form of an elbow module fits within the well and has a male conductor member which mates with the female member. A ground coating is provided on the exterior surface of the transformer and is in conductive relation to a ground coating on the elbow module. A metering system having a potential transformer and a current transformer each with a potential tap and connected together by a pair of interconnected elbow modules.
