Wilson Transformer Company provides total solutions designed for today’s business environment, which increasingly requires supply chain management, predictive management and condition-based maintenance. We are flexible in our approach..

Power Business Unit

The Head Office and Power Transformer manufacturing plant of Wilson Transformer Company are located on a four-hectare site in Glen Waverley, 20 km east of Melbourne’s CBD.

The Glen Waverley plant designs and manufactures generator, substation and auto transformers up to 250 MVA 362 kV, traction (both track-side and on-board locomotive) and other speciality transformers.

Each transformer can be fitted with a conventional relay-based control and monitoring system or alternatively with the Dynamic Ratings DRMCC System.

Electrical design is completed using software ranging from the tender optimization program to sophisticated finite element modelling (FEM) computer programs.

Distribution Business Unit

Wilson Transformer Company produces standard and customised distribution transformers and compact substations at our Wodonga plant up to 5000 kVA, at voltages up to 72 kV.

The plant has been laid out to enhance a continuous flow of production processes in accordance with our lean manufacturing philosophy.

The floor space comprises approx. 8000m2 and is divided into three main sections namely, core, winding and assembly; tank fabrication; and tanking, testing, finishing and padmount assembly.
