HOW WE REDESIGN AND REBUILD TRANSFORMERS

 

Repairing transformers is an exacting science.  At VTCU our technicians have the expertise to bring advanced design techniques to your damaged or obsolete transformers:

 

  • The transformer is disassembled and examined to determine original design characteristics, weakness, and the specific cause of failure

 

  • CAD programs are utilized to optimize design and analyze short circuit strength to meet the specifications.  Materials are ordered based on the most advantageous design

 

  • Replacement coils are wound with new conductor and new insulation materials by our technicians

 

  • Any modifications or upgrades to the tank, clamping structure and the LTC controls are completed in parallel

 

  • After the transformer is assembled, the tank exterior is sanded, primed and repainted.  The transformer is then rigorously tested in accordance with the latest ANSI standards

 

  • Only after all tests have been passed will VTC allow the transformer to be shipped

 

  • VTC can also arrange all logistical support for delivery and erection
