Answers about equipment, project planning, service, and support.
What does supertran specialize in?
Supertran supplies custom transformers and high-voltage equipment, with manufacturing oversight, logistics, assembly, installation, testing, and ongoing service. Support spans distribution through transmission voltage levels.
Can you service equipment from other manufacturers?

What happens after I place an order?
Approval drawings are issued for review before production starts. Your quotation and purchase agreement define payment milestones, testing documentation, shipping, and delivery arrangements.
How quickly can equipment be delivered?
Availability depends on equipment type, configuration, current production capacity, and logistics. Ask the team to confirm a delivery schedule for your specification. Available inventory may offer an earlier option.
Who handles warranty support?
Supertran coordinates warranty and service support within the U.S., providing a single point of contact through the equipment lifecycle. Warranty coverage follows the terms of the specific equipment agreement.
What insulation systems are available?
Supertran commonly offers 120°C and 140°C insulation systems, with mineral oil or FR3 options depending on equipment and application. The team can help match the design to your loading and environmental requirements.
What is an On-Load Tap Changer (OLTC)?
An OLTC adjusts transformer voltage while the unit is energized. Supertran offers internal and external configurations. The appropriate choice depends on the voltage regulation needs and project design.
How do I request emergency service?
Call (713) 281-5735 for 24/7 emergency dispatch. Have the site location, equipment manufacturer and ratings, and a description of the issue ready. Response and mobilization depend on location and scope.
