Emirates Transformer & Switchgear is an industry leader in the installation, service and rehabilitation of most brands of power, liquid-filled distribution and cast resin type transformers.

In excess of 300 years of collective know-how, our vastly experienced service team has the capability to perform basic to complex service/repairs, on-site annual preventative maintenance contracts or carry out a complete transformer refurbishment in our facilities.

Structuring a plan for the correct and regular maintenance of critical distribution and power transformers is a vital element in ‘delivering network resilience and reliability for continuity of electricity supplies through establishing asset health condition status to reduce network ‘blackout’ failures for utilities and end-users, alike. Whether your goal is to extend asset life or avoid catastrophic failures, ETS’s service expertise can develop a dedicated service programme to fulfil and exceed your transformer fleet strategic objectives. Blackout failures can have an adverse impact on your customers, finances and company’s overall reputation. The negative financial implications from loss of consumer revenues, regulatory body fines and cost of lost production should be considered in the development and decision making process for annual fleet maintenance budgets.

Our expert and highly skilled service team are available to work on projects throughout the Middle East region and further afield to provide the “best-in-class” field-based maintenance, service, repair and testing of transformers. ETS’s service experience covers most industrial sectors and utility operators which naturally develops our ability to fully understand and appreciate transformer operator exacting needs and financial constraints to create the best-optimised service plan to deliver against your strategic goals.

We offer a full consultancy and execution service for replacing mineral oil transformer with a fire safe and environmentally friendly ESTER dielectric fluid. Retrofilling existing mineral oil transformers with ESTER will immediately enhance performance, potentially extend the asset life expectancy and mitigate the risk of fire and pollution from oil leakage/spills. The utilisation of ESTER’s instead of mineral oil is especially beneficial in cases where transformer insulation paper is ‘wet’ and mineral oil is saturated reducing the breakdown voltage below acceptable and safe levels. Our service programme will first evaluate the condition of the existing transformer if suitable for a retrofill, inclusive of the insulation paper ageing to the full retrofill, including the handling and testing of ESTER’s.

TEST LABORATORY

Our in-house tests laboratory is accredited to international standards complying with the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2017.

With the expertise and competence to carry out tests and/or calibrations, including dielectric oil sampling DGA, we provide laboratory services to support to all our maintenance and repair activities. ETS’s electrical testing laboratories offer comprehensive testing and inspection services to ensure our products and/or work are safe and fit for purpose.
