ECOTAP® SPD®

The new standard in single-phase transformer technology

Single-phase on-load tap-changer and automatic voltage regulation all-in-one

 

As load and DER increase, voltage at the grid edge can limit additional connections. ECOTAP® SPD® stabilizes voltage directly at the transformer and keeps it within limits automatically without manual intervention.

 

ECOTAP® SPD® enables single-phase pole or pad-mounted voltage regulating distribution transformers (VRDT). The VRDT continuously regulates the secondary voltage under changing load and generation conditions. Field installations ​ follows standard transformer deployment – no additional equipment, cabinets or installation steps required. 

Your Advantages at a Glance

  1. Plug & play solution

    Voltage is kept within limits automatically, without manual control or complicated commissioning

  2. One size fits all

    One product, one material number, multiple applications/use cases/value streams

  3. Increase hosting capacity

    More DER and load can be connected without exceeding voltage limits

  4. Cost-effective alternative

    Reduce need for costly line expansion, capacitor banks, or other voltage regulating equipment

  5. No additional infrastructure required

    Control, measurement, and regulation are fully integrated in the transformer

  6. Deploy like a conventional transformer

    Same installation processes – no additional field complexity ​
