Hi bhankii,

This is off-topic, but I noticed you're located in El Lago, TX, near Clear Lake. How'd you fare during Katrina?

I know who digi-key is. I receive catalogs from them. I would say that the component is probably fine as long as it meets the specification. Pad mounted distibution transformers are before the electric meter and are usually by the local electric utility, so you get stuck with the manufacturer they use. If the pad mount needs parts, this should be by the local utility because they own it. From the meter on is usually an owner's responsibility.

...also, since you know the manufacturer of the parts you want, contact them, or go to their websites for a list of distributors. Some of them, like Cooper, let you order straight from their website.

Once found, many suppliers' sales offices across the globe will accept a telephone order, with payment being made over-the-telephone by a credit- or debit-card.
