INTRODUCTION

PCB Power Transformers was established in 1989, and is wholly owned by a female HDI.

PCB Power Transformers has grown from strength to strength to become a sustainable HDI owned electrical manufacturing company which aspires to grow and be recognized as a role player in the electrical manufacturing field.

OBJECTIVES

The main objectives of PCB Power Transformers are to:

• Identify business opportunities in all market sectors and to tender for such.
  
• To grow as a small/medium emerging business.
  
• To provide exemplary workmanship through continual staff training and up-liftment.

INFRASTRUCTURE

PCB Power Transformers owns a 4000 m2 factory situated in Industria, Gauteng. It contains all the facilities necessary to build and test new transformers to customers’ specifications.

VEHICLES

We currently have 6 vehicles ( from 1/2 ton to 6 ton) that service the Gauteng region on a daily basis.

EQUIPMENT

We have a large number of winding machines to cater for the full range of transformers we produce. These range from fully automatic programmable machines to those capable of winding heavy copper foil.

The Steel fabrication section has a 3 meter x 6mm guillotine, 100 Ton press brake, large radial arm drill, welding bays and a spray booth enabling us to produce tanks in-house.

Our test bay contains all the instruments required to perform routine tests according to SANS 780 (including an automatic Ratiometer, Tinsley dual channel Resistance Bridge and Norma power analyser).

We are also able to perform in-house temperature rise (heat run) tests according to SANS 780 type test requirements.
