What are the clearance requirements for oil filled transformers?

The clearance requirements for oil filled transformers are critical for safety and operational efficiency. Typically, a minimum clearance of 3 feet is recommended from the transformer to any structure or combustible material. Additionally, the top of the transformer should have at least 10 feet of clearance to prevent any potential fire hazards. These clearance requirements help ensure adequate ventilation and access for maintenance while minimizing risks associated with transformer oil leaks or spills.
