Used Rex Manufacturing Distribution Transformers in Canada

Check the nameplate ratings, kVA and voltage class, manufacturing date, oil condition or insulation status, tap changer condition, bushing integrity, maintenance and fault records, and results of recent electrical tests (insulation resistance, turns ratio, winding resistance, and DGA if oil-filled).

Use heavy-equipment carriers with proper lifting gear and blocking. For oil-filled units confirm local rules—some jurisdictions require draining or special containment. Secure and protect bushings and tap changers, use skid or frame supports, and arrange permits/escort for oversized loads.

Perform periodic visual inspections, oil testing (DGA, moisture, acidity) for oil-filled units, check and service tap changers, clean and tighten bushings and connections, monitor temperature and load, and repair leaks or corrosion promptly. Follow manufacturer intervals and keep detailed records.
