BHEL
Indian state-owned engineering group that builds EHV, HVDC and 1,200 kV UHV transformers and reactors at Bhopal, Jhansi and Hyderabad, including India's first 1,200 kV, 333 MVA autotransformer.
Facts
Source per value- Segment Power when the maker publishes power, GSU, HVDC, autotransformer or reactor products or a rating above 20 MVA; Distribution when it publishes distribution, pad-mount, pole-mount, network or dry-type products; both when it publishes each. Derived from Transformer types and Largest rating.
- Power and distribution 1
- Transformer types Product types the maker lists, separated by semicolons: power, GSU, autotransformer, HVDC, shunt reactor, substation, distribution, pad-mount, pole-mount, network, dry-type (cast resin, VPI), mobile, rectifier/industrial, renewable and data center lines.
- power; GSU; autotransformer; HVDC; shunt reactor; phase-shifting; dry-type; furnace; rectifier/industrial 1
- Largest rating MVA Largest verified published rating in the cited product or regional scope, in MVA. Product range identifies base, forced-cooling, phase-shifter throughput or group-history claims; these rating bases are not interchangeable. Planned future ranges are described separately.
- 1,000 1
- Smallest rating kVA Smallest published rating, in kVA. Shows how far down the distribution range a maker goes.
- Not published
- Product range The kVA/MVA range as the maker states it, by product line.
- Generator transformers: up to 600 MVA, 420 kV three-phase; 400 MVA, 765 kV single-phase. Autotransformers: up to 1,000 MVA, 1,200 kV single-phase. Dry-type up to 15 MVA, 36 kV. 1
- Highest voltage kV Highest voltage class the maker publishes or has delivered, in kV (AC system voltage; HVDC noted under Voltage classes).
- 1,200 1
- Voltage classes Voltage classes and BIL as the source states them, by product or plant.
- EHV, HVDC and UHV AC to 1,200 kV 1
- Plants Transformer manufacturing locations, city and country. Planned plants carry their target date. Location lists identify verified sites and may not cover every factory in a global group.
- Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India (12,000 MVA EHV/HVDC/UHV plant); Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh, India; Hyderabad, Telangana, India 1
- Plant countries Countries with verified operating transformer manufacturing in the cited scope; not necessarily the complete global footprint. Component and service-only sites do not establish new-unit manufacturing.
- India 1
- US plant Yes when an operating US transformer plant is verified; No when the source shows the maker's plants and none is in the US. Empty means not verified.
- Not published
- EU plant Yes when an operating transformer plant in an EU-27 country is verified (the UK, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey do not count). Empty means not verified.
- Not published
- Capacity expansion Announced transformer capacity expansions: amount in the original currency, place, announcement date, target date and output change. US and EU projects first.
- Not published
- Largest US/EU expansion $M Largest single announced US or EU transformer capacity investment, in US$ millions, where the source states a dollar amount. Euro amounts stay in Capacity expansion unconverted.
- Not published
- Expansion region Where the announced capacity expansions are: US, EU, both, or only elsewhere (Other).
- Not published
- Certifications and standards Quality certifications, listings and design standards the source names (ISO 9001, IEEE C57, IEC 60076, EU Ecodesign Tier 2, utility approvals).
- Not published
- Data center offer Yes when the maker markets transformers for data centers or has disclosed a data center transformer order. Empty means not found.
- Not published
- Data center product or order The named data center line, or the disclosed order with value and date.
- Not published
- Parent or owner Parent company or owner where the source states one.
- Not published
- HQ country Country of the maker's headquarters.
- India 1
- HQ region Region of the maker's headquarters.
- Asia-Pacific 1
- Legacy brands and names Sourced former names and acquired transformer businesses, retained on the current maker row to avoid duplicate supplier counts.
