From idea to state-of-the-art production!
TTTSA was established in South Africa in 2010 due to the growing market demand for the supply of more reliable, cost efficient and good quality transformers. The initial plan was to import and assemble sub-elements in South Africa, but Eskom demanded that more value be added to the supply chain in our country through local manufacturing. Accordingly, further capital was invested into the company in order to establish a state of the art transformer manufacturing factory in Botshabelo. As a result TTSA became an Eskom approved supplier in 2015, after which the first sizeable order was received.
Understanding the role of Transformers on the National Grid
Transformers such as ours, are defined as devices that alter the voltage of electrical currents. A transformer can change a high-voltage supply into a low-voltage supply. When a power station such as Medupi supplies electricity to consumers, it does so through through the national grid. Before the electricity gets into the home or business, the voltage needs to be reduced to safe levels through step-down transformers. This is where TTSA come in!
- a transformer that increases the voltage is called a step-up transformer
- a transformer that decreases the voltage is called a step-down transformer
- our transformers are step-down transformers – built for safe entry of electricity into homes and businesses

Without a TTSA step-down transformer, pulling the power from this pole would be extremely dangerous.
