Transformer Factory Start-Up
MV Transformer and Distribution Transformer (11kV to 66kV)
KIGG Ltd core business is factory Start-ups. KIGG Started out in Electricity Meters and one of our first
clients for metering was a multinational transformer manufacturer. Through this relationship and at the
requests of our clients we expanded and gained specialist knowledge to in providing a complete factory
start-up solution to MV Distribution transformer ranging from 11kV to 66kV. This includes the facilities and
training to transfer technology, knowledge and expertise to allow existing manufacturers to upgrade their
factory or allow investors and businesses to enter the transformer market and establish their own factory.
Company Info
KIGG is a leading British ISO 9001:2008 certified company engaged in the design, development,
manufacture and supply. Our Core business is factory start-ups; these include kWh/electricity meters,
water, distribution transformers and MCCBs. Other products include smart equipment for environment
monitoring, ideal for monitoring Greenhouses, AC etc... via Smart Devices. KIGG also offers
transformer/relay maintenance and partial discharge testing services.
Smart Grid Technology
Transformers are the hub for the collection and distribution of energy; this makes them a vital component
for the successful transition to a smart grid. We provide system automation technology linked to interfaces
to various systems following IEC 61850.
Transformers within the smart grid will need to have two way, real time communications, remote
monitoring, comprehensive power flow control and sensing and monitoring technology that supports
remote monitoring. They will need to be able to deal with the demand within the grid and as such have to
decide where to allocate power from, i.e. power station, wind farm or solar panels within the grid.
Distribution Transformers
Transformers have a vital role in electrical systems as they are a means of “stepping down” the
current/voltage in a system to measurable values. We would enable you to manufacture transformers
from 11kV up to 66kV. Countries in the Middle East, Asia, Africa and South America are shifting from
consuming products to manufacturing their own products. Governments are providing a lot of incentives
and support for companies who create local Jobs.
You could be investors with an opportunity opening up in the market or an existing company in a related
field, wishing to break into a new market, by utilising both your and our expertise you can be successful.
The transformer is vital for infrastructure development and is a critical part of the power network as it
provides an efficient transfer of electrical energy. The transformer needs to be highly efficient, rugged
and reliable as they are in constant use over decades at a time. As such the effects of both ageing and
wear are unavoidable.
Our team of engineers will help you reduce the costs and risks and supervise the process. One of the
challenges involved with transformers is type testing KIGG will oversee this process via the certification
laboratory of your choice.

Transformer Factory Start-Up
Complete Solution provider
Factory start-up experience – Start with a feasibility study used to assess the viability of a project. It
aims to uncover any potential problems/issues. Both technical and commercial feasibility are considered.
Economic competitiveness – Project success is not just limited to quality and price and there are many
benefits to take advantage of when starting your factory, these vary between countries. These incentives
range from Government Funding & Grants, support in economic zones, government regulations etc...
Project construction & production costs – The space and equipment necessary will depend on the
desired production capacity and the scope of the manufacturing processes required for your factory. The
more that is produced/the more manufacturing processes completed, the larger the space and the greater
the amount of equipment that will be required.
Production Facilities – The design of the factory will depend on the capabilities of your factory and the
volume of production required. We will maximise the efficiently of space and production.
We will design and provide extensive drawings for both the product and the factory. The design of the
product will be constructed based on your requirements.
There are many internationally recognized certification laboratories such as KEMA, CESI etc.
We will support you through the whole certification process.
Manufacturing – Our team of expert engineers can provide onsite support from procurement, installation,
commissioning, calibration and training.
Basic (procurement) Components
Core – Electrical Steel
Windings – Copper – Precision is vital as testing can only be preformed once transformer is complete.
(There could be between 1,000 and 3,000 windings)
Insulation – Cellulose-based paper
Total Customer experience program – Once the factory is set-up we can support you in a number of
ways.
