Utility & Industrial Power

Power Transformers in Canada

Medium- and high-voltage liquid-filled power transformers for utilities, substations and heavy industry — stocked and shipped Canada-wide.

Purcee Industrial Power supplies power transformers across Canada. As the exclusive Canadian distributor of Yawei transformers, we stock, configure and ship medium- and high-voltage power transformers for utilities, substations, generation tie-ins and heavy industrial loads — backed by full engineering support from our Foothills, Alberta head office.

From step-up and step-down units to autotransformers and units with on-load tap changers, we help engineers and EPCs specify the right rating, impedance and cooling class, then deliver with coordinated nationwide logistics.

Overview

What is a power transformer?

A power transformer steps voltage up or down at the transmission and primary-distribution level, typically at higher kVA/MVA ratings than distribution transformers. They are the backbone of substations, generating stations and large industrial facilities, where reliability, low losses and tight voltage regulation are critical.

Power transformers can be supplied to recognised Canadian standards — see our CSA C88 transformers page for power transformers and reactors built to CAN/CSA-C88. We help confirm the exact ratings, tap ranges and test requirements your application needs.

FAQ

Power Transformers — FAQ

What is the difference between a power transformer and a distribution transformer?

Power transformers operate at higher voltages and ratings (transmission and primary distribution) and prioritise efficiency at full load, while distribution transformers step voltage down to end-use levels. Purcee supplies both across Canada.

Does Purcee supply power transformers across Canada?

Yes. We stock and ship medium- and high-voltage power transformers nationwide from our Foothills, Alberta head office, with delivery coordinated to your project schedule.

Can you supply power transformers built to CSA C88?

Yes. We supply liquid-filled power transformers and reactors configured to meet CAN/CSA-C88. See our CSA C88 transformers page for details.

How do I get a power transformer quote in Canada?

Send your phases, voltage, kVA/MVA, impedance and cooling requirements through our quote request form. Most quotes are returned within one business day.
