Load Tap Changer (LTC) Service

Waukesha® Service has the ability and expertise to service most load tap changers in use in the U.S.A. today. We can perform a condition assessment of your LTCs to advise what is wrong or what can be done to increase reliability and extend the life of this important asset. Our Components Group in Dallas, Texas, can provide a complete parts kit so when we service an LTC, we have the correct parts at the jobsite to promptly repair the unit rather than waiting for parts to arrive to complete the job. This process can save time and money! Our Service Team also has the necessary equipment and manpower to remove oil to perform an in-tank inspection and either clean or, more typically, replace the LTC oil.

COMPREHENSIVE LTC MAINTENANCE TRAINING

LTC maintenance training is available through our Components Group in Dallas, Texas. Classes are scheduled throughout the year for several of the most common models of tap changers in operation today. Experienced instructors offer this training at our Dallas facility, utilizing working tap changers for both theoretical and hands-on learning opportunities.

Training can also be scheduled at a customer’s facility, if that is most convenient and cost-effective. For more information on these training classes, click here to visit our expanded training offering page.
