Our Dry-Type Distribution Transformers offer high levels of reliability and safety. With low flammability, they are ideally suited for critical applications. Best-in-class cast resin transformers are engineered to maximise your investment through reliable performance and a long service life.

  • Dry-Type Distribution Transformers are essential components in electrical power distribution, offering an alternative to traditional oil-filled transformers by using air or gas for insulation.
  • Filled with sustainable design, solid, and resin-based insulation materials, the absence of oil reduces the environmental impact making them more reliable, less prone to fire hazards, and suitable for indoor installations and areas where environmental safety is a concern.
  • Low maintenance: with no oil to manage, Dry-Type Transformers require minimal maintenance, reducing operational costs over time.
  • Compact design: suitable for installations with limited space, such as urban and industrial settings.


What are the types of Dry-Type Transformer?

  • Cast Resin Transformers (CRT): use epoxy resin to insulate the windings, providing high mechanical strength and moisture resistance.
  • Vacuum Pressure Impregnated (VPI) Transformers: use a vacuum and pressure process to impregnate the windings with resin, offering enhanced insulation and protection against environmental factors.


How is digital transformation improving Medium Voltage Transformers?

The digital transformation of Medium Voltage Transformers is helping to provide operations teams with a greater level of data-driven insight into equipment conditions. It enables proactive measures, helping to lower downtime, promote predictive maintenance, and keep maintenance requirements and costs at an all-time low.


Where are Dry-Type Transformers widely used?

  • Commercial buildings: for lighting and power distribution in office buildings, malls, and hospitals.
  • Industrial facilities: powering machinery and processes in factories and plants.
  • Data centres: providing reliable power with minimal risk of fire.
  • Renewable energy projects: supporting solar and wind energy installations where safety and environmental considerations are critical.


Our Oil Type Distribution Transformers offer a cost-effective solution for your network. Whether it is for managing a rural network, or for simply improving your energy efficiency, we have the perfect solution for any distribution transformer application. Ground mounted, pole mounted or high-efficiency oil type transformers all form part of our extensive range.
Our power transformers go beyond MV. These oil-immersed or fluid-filled transformers are custom-made to your specification with ratings up to 100 MVA or 170 kV. They are designed for high-efficiency applications in any power distribution network, using dedicated and proven designs for power transformer applications.
