The ceiling is totally accessible by removing any 2’X 4′ ceiling tile and the clearances around and above the transformer comply with code and manufacturer specifications. A11. Yep, this is fine, just as long as it’s a dry-type transformers 600 volts, nominal, or less and not exceeding 50 kVA [540.13(B)]. Please send your comments to: Mike@MikeHolt.com.
