🇮🇳 Transformer Industry — India
India is one of the largest and most competitive transformer manufacturing bases in the world — and one of the biggest buyers. With an extensive 765/400/220 kV grid and an enormous distribution-transformer replacement and rural-electrification programme, demand spans EHV power transformers down to pole-mounted distribution units and dry-type.
