Possibly, but it shouldn't be inside the panel regardless of what it's for.

The transformer should be mounted on the outside of the panel or it isn't grounded.

725.55 of the NEC normally addressed this situation but the 2008 NEC made significant changes in numbering. Anyone know where it is now?

I posted the pics just for humor. The panel was a major mess. I just summed it up by saying there were several issues, and a licensced electrician needed to come out and further inspect, and repair or replace as needed.
