Actom builds first 66 kV transformer, sets sights on further expansion in Africa

Electromechanical equipment manufacturer Actom, which has manufactured its first 66 kV transformer, says it plans to supply small high-voltage (HV) power transformers in Africa, as part of plans to expand into more African countries. HV transformers are typically used in the electricity transmission and generation sector, while lower-voltage units are mainly used on the distribution side.
