With all due respect to Mark V\'s \"transforming substation,\" the references to such a term are non-English/American. His reference, I believe, is French Canadian. I\'ve just never heard it called a \"transforming\" station, but I could be wrong - wouldn\'t be the first time!

But, Oleg, you are right - my transformer box blows out regularly since I\'m at the end of the line and get all the surges, despite the surge arresters installed by the power company!

transformer box
- mayby, simply that -if it is not about some large facility (station or even substation).
the term "Transformer box" is the one of several translations for "Трансформаторная подстанция" at www.mulyttran.ru

You see these transformer boxes all over the places (and they blow up pretty often too:))

As the Asker said , it is \"for one apartment building,\" - then it is possibly just a transformer box
--------------------------------------------------
Note added at 2003-02-23 00:23:42 (GMT)
--------------------------------------------------
If you all think it is a substation:
Then, I still do not undestand - why would somebody build the transformer substation for only one building...

substation transformer
Sorry for the late entry, but I think the problem is solved this way. Switch the adjective and noun. Now you have a single one of the items that a transformer substation is made of. That would make it a mini-substation of the type you would need for one "high-powered" luxury apartment building.
The link below has one for sale, for the visually oriented.
