Winder Power is a market leader in the UK for on-site power transformer upgrades, replacement cooler banks, modifications, ONAF power rating enhancement and refurbishment works. We know that new transformers come with high costs, so we strive to aid our customers by offering refurbishments and replacements on their existing units.

Ensuring that your transformer’s paint is in good condition is imperative as this will avoid any rust or corrosion. If you allow corrosion to occur to your transformer you could be at risk of leaks, and subsequent tripping out of service.

Leaking transformers can be a costly problem. Moisture and oxygen can enter a transformer through leaking gaskets which can cause enhanced ageing of insulation and insulation failure. Regasketing your units can considerably improve their lifespan and help you to avoid high costs. Oil leaks can cause major environmental and health hazards if the leaking oil contaminates groundwater, which can be expensive. Furthermore, if the paint on the transformer is lead-based, leaking oil can transfer the lead into the ground.

It is important to make sure that your units remain in good condition so that they can continue to work successfully with longevity. If you believe that you require any of our services, speak to a dedicated member of our team.

We understand the importance of keeping our clients’ assets online. To ensure minimal disruption, we will work with the client to put together a suitable programme.
