Transformers are the backbone of the electrical grid, ensuring the continuous flow of power essential for our daily activities. By stepping voltage up or down through magnetic induction within their windings, transformers create a vital link between circuits operating at different voltages. Proper handling during installation, assembly, and testing is crucial for their longevity and performance.
Transformer technicians will be on your site to assist with monitoring, planning, and rolling out testing and maintenance routines and procedures. This way you can schedule power equipment acceptance testing and maintenance tests. We’ll help you prevent unplanned service interruptions and overhauls. When repairs are needed, our regional facilities are staffed to perform the repairs and get you back online.
Liquid-filled transformers, more efficient and with better overload capability than dry-type transformers, are commonly used in electrical circuits. These transformers use insulating fluid for cooling and arc quenching, and maintenance of components like bushings, radiators, and gaskets is vital. Our services cover assembling new transformers, replacing old gaskets, and conducting load tap changer (LTC) services.
Aging equipment will need switchgear and breaker parts. You can save money on refurbished components for legacy transformers. Your transformer will get repair and maintenance to return power gear to like-new with quality replacement parts meeting or exceeding original manufacturer specs. Services include major repairs, assembly, vacuum fill, oil processing Sample Analysis and electrical testing.
