Cesar,

I drew this for you.I know theres a lot of confusion

You have a XFMR an OCB and a minimum of 3 OCR's per XFMR

The Breaker and the OCR's sit on separate racks made of steel so the tops of each are about 8 to 10 feet off the ground

The breaker is rectagular and they usually measure about 6Wx3Dx4H

OCR's look like a XFMR that mounted on a pole but don't have secondary bushings

They're shaped like a cylinder about a foot and a half in diameter and about 3 feet high with the bushinngs(Insulators on top)

Each OCR feeds one phase.A circuit going thru your neighborhood has 3 phases(The cross arm has 3 wires on top and one 4 feet below those which is a ground

Hope this helps

David
