Solutions for all industries
All industries use electricity in some form or another. Commercial electrical equipment regularly requires different voltage (V) or amperage (A) than what is provided from the mains, others require isolation from the mains, and some require both – these situations are easily solved with an SES transformer.
So, whether you are looking to step your power up or down, or isolate your equipment, speak to us about your custom power needs. SES also works with many OEM’s to provide a perfect solution for the machinery they manufacture.
Check out just some of the vast array of commercial applications our transformers have been used in.
