Design, Material and Component Upgrades

Performance Boost

GE offers design, material and component upgrades to enhance the performance and extend the life of your transformer. Here is the comprehensive list of our service offerings:

  • Copper alloys with greater tensile strength than pure copper
  • Epoxy-bonded cable for stiffness greater than conventional cable
  • Coil supports that impart uniform pressure around the periphery of the coil
  • Positive pressure adjustable clamping systems assure tight coil assembly
  • Cylinders, end rings, and key spacers strengthened to withstand buckling forces
  • High-density key spacer tie strips prevent axial and radial movement of disk and helical windings
  • Increased short-circuit strength
    -New materials result in superior strength with dielectric integrity
    -Better clamping from spring-loaded dashpots helps keep coils tight
  • Non-metallic plates replace high-loss metallic coil clamping plates
