Custom Industrial Special Transformer Manufacturer - Chetan Electric
Engineered to Order
ISO 9001 Certified

Custom-Engineered Special Application Transformers

At Chetan Electric Pvt. Ltd., we specialize in the custom engineering and manufacturing of heavy-duty special application transformers tailored to rigorous industrial requirements. Operating under harsh electrical, thermal, and mechanical conditions, special transformers require specialized design expertise far beyond standard power distribution units.

With over 30 years of engineering experience since 1994, our specialized transformers are designed to withstand severe short-circuit forces, extreme harmonic loads, and frequent voltage fluctuations. Every unit is manufactured at our Bangalore facility and subjected to stringent quality verification, including full type testing at the renowned Central Power Research Institute (CPRI).

CPRI Certified Quality

Type-tested for short-circuit withstand & impulse voltage integrity at CPRI labs.

International Standards

Fully compliant with IEC 60076, IS 2026, IS 1180, and IEEE guidelines.

High-Performance Special Transformer Categories

We provide fully customized electrical solutions for metallurgy, chemical electrolysis, high-voltage testing laboratories, and heavy motor starting systems.

Furnace Transformers

Engineered for steel works, arc furnaces, and induction melting operations. Built to handle extreme thermal stress, heavy low-voltage secondary currents, and frequent operational short circuits.

  • Low LV current density with robust busbar arrangement
  • Advanced coil drying & VPI insulation processing
  • High endurance On-Load Tap Changer (OLTC) integration
  • Enhanced mechanical clamping against magnetic stress

Rectifier Transformers

Designed for chemical electrolysis, metal refining, traction systems, and DC industrial drives. Integrated with semiconductor rectifier bridges for harmonic minimization and high continuous DC output.

  • Multi-phase phase-shifting winding options (6, 12, 24 pulse)
  • Low harmonic distortion and optimized eddy current loss
  • Heavy copper busbar design with water/oil cooling options
  • High dielectric strength for heavy-duty DC bias

HV Testing Transformers

Precision-built power frequency high voltage testing transformers engineered for electrical testing laboratories, cable testing, insulation breakdown analysis, and research institutes.

  • Voltage ratings up to 150kV AC power frequency
  • Partial discharge-free insulation architecture
  • Low internal impedance for continuous stable testing
  • Cascade connection options for ultra-high voltage setups
