Base plate

NGEF Base Plate – Product Description

The NGEF Base Plate is a fundamental structural component used in On-Load Tap Changer (OLTC) systems of power and distribution transformers. It serves as the main supporting foundation for mounting and securing critical components such as contacts, resistors, switching mechanisms, and operating linkages. By providing a stable and rigid base, the base plate ensures proper alignment and smooth functioning of the entire diverter switch assembly.

Manufactured from high-strength, heat-resistant, and corrosion-protected materials, the NGEF Base Plate offers excellent mechanical durability and long-term reliability. Its robust construction enables it to withstand vibration, thermal stress, and continuous operational loads inside the transformer tank. The precision-machined mounting points allow accurate fitting of components, reducing mechanical misalignment and wear.

The base plate also plays an important role in maintaining operational safety by supporting proper spacing between electrical parts and minimizing mechanical movement during switching.
