Reply:Nice place to install that transformer. I've work in places that floor mounted them and they become junk collectors.
Reply:Real nice job. Looks to be so you can even get to the transformer for inspectionand service if need be.[b]I will say that I shudder when I see setups like this without details on the tie-in to the wall. Transformers are heavy, and I have seen several mounts in this style fracture the wall or outright pull out (in one case an HVAC heat exchanger, directly over my, and my students, heads). Block walls are relatively fragile to loads out of plane, and heavy loads need to be hung carefully.So how is the bracket attached?
Reply:I thought someone would ask  It is through bolted through the doulbe wide block wall with a 4'x4'x 1/4" backing plate on the other side.

Reply:That makes me feel better. Walking into a room and finding several hundred pounds of heat exchanger on the floor roughly where you were standing less than an hour before kinda make you think about this

Reply:The mount looks good. Don't listen to Zap, he is a much better talker than a welder. Look at his projects. Most of them look like a robot bird flew over his shop and crapped on a peice of metal he was working on.
