These installations have seen particularly enthusiastic uptake in mining due to often remote locations at which power is required. Building a traditional brick-and-mortar substation on site can be complex and time consuming, whereas a modular substation or e-house can be constructed and tested in a specialised workshop \u2013 and then shipped to site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur dry-type transformers are ideally suited for these installations, as their high safety rating allows them to be integrated into the substation structure during assembly,\u201d he says. \u201cIn contrast, conventional oil-cooled transformers carry a higher safety risk, so must usually be located separately; they also need protective infrastructure to ensure that any oil leakage does not cause environmental contamination.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-04-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"829\" data-id=\"9681\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-04-1024x829.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9681\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-04-1024x829.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-04-300x243.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-04-768x622.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-04-1536x1244.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-04-2048x1659.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-03.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"9680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-03-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9680\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-03-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-03-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.coralynne.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/SOLUTIONS-PIC-03.jpg 945w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trafo Power Solutions\u2019 depth of expertise and experience allows it to design and supply entire modular substations, which have been supplied to customers around Africa.
