Transformer casing is an outer shell designed to safeguard internal components. Its functions include:

Insulation and Safety: Transformer casing provides electrical insulation, preventing external elements from causing electrical shock or insulation breakdown inside the transformer. It contributes to safeguarding personnel and equipment.

Protection and Dust Prevention: The casing shields against dust, moisture, chemicals, and other external contaminants from entering the transformer, reducing the risk of corrosion and damage.

Environmental Preservation: The casing shields the transformer's internal insulation materials from factors like UV rays and weather, extending the transformer's lifespan.

Temperature Regulation: In some instances, the casing assists in regulating the internal temperature of the transformer, preventing overheating or excessive cooling and ensuring normal equipment operation.

Mechanical Protection: The casing prevents mechanical damage caused by collisions, external forces, animals, and more.

Maintenance and Repair Convenience: The casing can serve as an access point, facilitating engineers and maintenance personnel in conducting inspections, maintenance, and servicing.

In summary, transformer casings play a crucial role in protecting internal equipment, ensuring safety, extending the operational lifespan, and facilitating maintenance.
