Capacitive voltage transformers are used to convert high transmission line voltage (up to 1200kV) to standardized low and easily measurable values, which will be used for metering, protection and control of the high voltage system. As such, the need for accurate and reliable voltage transformation is essential.
The reliability and security of Trench capacitive voltage transformers is based on over 50 years of innovation with units operating under a wide range of environmental conditions. Capacitive voltage transformers also ensure suitable electrical insulation between high voltage and low voltage measuring equipment and are available with accessories for PLC transmission and Power Quality measurement.
Our capacitive voltage transformers are compliant to the latest international safety standard requirements in terms of explosion-proof, insulating material multiple chopped ageing, seismic qualification and extreme temperature conditions.
The production in different Trench locations across the globe with modern manufacturing and testing capabilities ensures a long life time and reliability.
More than
units supplied every year.
For decades Trench has been the global market leader for CVTs.
Thousands of transformers installed and in service for more than 50 years all over the world and in all environmental conditions are the best guarantee of the quality and reliability of our products.
