The IFD makes sense on pad-mounts because sometimes it’s difficult to tell if the fault is in the transformer or the cable.

I used to be a lineman. When you have a transformer fuse cut-out explode in your face and a faulty transformer dump hot oil on you, it isn’t something you want to experience again. IFD technology is the greatest thing since ice cream. I would recommend this to all utilities.
