Installation Process & Maintenance

Artwork must be applied to the transformer via a vinyl adhesive wrap. AMP does not permit transformers to be painted.
All projects must be professionally installed by a certified vinyl wrap installation company.
The vinyl must be able to withstand heat up to 1000 degrees. AMP requires IJ380Cv3 vinyl.
Vinyl must be installed on a day with temperatures between 60 and 90 degrees and no rain.
Transformers must be clean of dirt before installation of the vinyl.
AMP’s signage on the transformer cannot be covered in any way.
AMP must have access to the components in the transformer at all times.
Vents and fins cannot be covered so as not to restrict airflow from the cabinet.
Door hinges must remain free of materials.
AMP must be present at all installations of artwork, if it requires the transformer doors to be opened to accommodate the vinyl wrap.
The sponsor is responsible for obtaining and posting “No Parking” signs 72 hours in advance if needed to ensure access to the transformer during the installation.
