High power voltage transformers (SSVTs) – Type VPT

Building on the principles of inductive voltage transformer design, the high-power voltage transformer, also known as station service voltage transformer (SSVT), is engineered to supply auxiliary power for substations and enable rural electrification. The open-core concept provides several operational advantages over conventional products. These include immunity to ferroresonance, explosion-proof construction, and robust resistance to very fast transient overvoltages.

Offered with rated voltages ranging from 72.5 kV to 550 kV, the VPT transformer is a testament to the company’s innovation, with serial production launched in 2006.
