Editorial

Dear Read­ers,

Thank you for tak­ing the time for our cus­tomer mag­a­zine ONLOAD. One main focus of this edi­tion will be on our ser­vice port­fo­lio relat­ing to reg­u­lat­ing trans­form­ers. Over the last few years, we have devel­oped from a sup­pli­er of high-qual­i­ty com­po­nents to a com­pre­hen­sive part­ner over the entire trans­former life. As a result, our cus­tomers can ben­e­fit from our advice and diag­nos­tics, as well as tech­ni­cal sup­port and mod­ern­iza­tion. A brand new ser­vice we are offer­ing is a diag­nos­tics pro­ce­dure for fleet man­age­ment, which we have devel­oped in close asso­ci­a­tion with a Ger­man ener­gy sup­pli­er and a uni­ver­si­ty.

A top­ic wide­ly dis­cussed through­out the indus­try is the dig­i­tal­iza­tion of equip­ment. One of the key ben­e­fits often cit­ed is its abil­i­ty to decrease costs while also increas­ing avail­abil­i­ty. Read about how the Ice­landic grid oper­a­tor Veitur worked with us to take the first steps toward „smart“ trans­form­ers, and what plans it has for the future. Also in this issue: A pow­er qual­i­ty solu­tion for con­nect­ing a wind farm to the grid as well as the new, auto­mat­ed pro­duc­tion process at our Ital­ian sub­sidiary C.A.P.T., where tap chang­ers for dis­tri­b­u­tion trans­form­ers are made.

Thanks for read­ing!
