Experts in Transformers:not the kind in the movies

When it comes to powering your commercial building, the electrical transformer is one of the most important—and most overlooked—pieces of equipment. Transformers take high-voltage electricity from the utility company and safely step it down to the lower voltage levels your building needs to run everything from HVAC systems and lighting to computers and machinery.

Choosing the right transformer isn’t just about functionality—it affects your energy efficiency, operating costs, and even equipment lifespan. Whether you’re retrofitting an older building or planning new construction, you need to consider the type (dry-type vs. oil-filled), placement, load size, and future expansion plans.

Most commercial properties require three-phase power for reliability and performance, and energy-efficient models that meet current DOE standards can lead to significant long-term savings. Regular maintenance and proper installation are also key to avoiding costly outages or damage. If you’re unsure whether your transformer is optimized for your building’s needs, it may be time for a review.
