The transformer nameplate inside the enclosure carries the catalog number. Photograph it, the open interior with the main breakers, and the outside of the enclosure.

| Three-phase example | P48G28T1518: 15 kVA, 480 V to 208Y/120, 115 C rise, frame 289B, aluminum, 320 lb |

- Complete units with both main breakers are worth more than stripped shells.
- NEMA 4X and copper-wound versions are less common than the standard NEMA 3R aluminum unit.
- Branch breakers left in the interior add value.
- Failed units still sell for breakers, enclosure and core and coil.
- We do not publish prices. Metal, demand, and condition move them. You get a written number for your unit.
On the units we checked, the catalog number starts with the same 48 for a 480 V primary used on Eaton general purpose units, 28 marks a 208Y/120 secondary and 11 marks 120/240. T and S separate three-phase from single-phase. The digits after the kVA vary with the interior and options, so match the full number to the nameplate rather than guessing.

Selling a Eaton Mini-Power Center: what people ask.
Yes. Temporary power units come back in all conditions and we buy them with or without branch breakers.
On the units we have checked, 48 is the 480 V primary, 28 is a 208Y/120 secondary and T is three-phase. Single-phase 120/240 units read P48G11S.
Yes. The enclosure and breakers still have value and the transformer goes for core and coil.
Both. New surplus, used, untested, and failed all sell. Condition sets the number, not whether we buy.
