If you look at this picture the mounting location of the neutral/grounded conductor was relocated. The neutral conductors have sufficient length to utilize the original location.

This 30 + year old building was currently remodeled, and it appears this transformer was relocated.

The Lug they had on the truck did not match the hole layout

if they really had to scab it in, maybe some mastic could have been used for insurance!

Especially between two primary legs. They'd have even had to scrub off the shellac for the new mounting location, when that was already done in the factory location. Strange.

I hope my eyes is not teasing me but did the netural lug have 4 cables going in there ?? i know there is 2 for secondary side but what the heck going on primary side look like one netural or two grounding wires there and i am not sure if they did bonded the cabent with netural or ground hard to say there.

Merci, Marc

I saw that too and was wondering about it. It is hard to tell what the other 2 wires are, but there are 4 wires on that terminal.
The neutral connection is way too close the other phase connections for my comfort.

Carry On!
