AC/DC motor and stator rewinding

The windings of a large electrical machine, seen close up

We rewind and repair AC and DC motors and stators up to 500 HP, on LT and on HT up to 11 kV. Every rewind uses dual-coated super-enamelled copper wire, fibreglass sleeves, F-class insulating material and varnish, and is tested before it goes back.

Who it's for

Plants that can't afford a long stoppage: cane carriers, pumps, fans and process drives in sugar factories, distilleries, dairies and engineering units.

What's included

  • Rewinding of squirrel-cage induction motors and stators, LT and HT up to 11 kV
  • DC motor rewinding and repair
  • Single-phase motors and fans: ceiling, wall, exhaust and industrial fans
  • Testing before dispatch (see the tests below)
  • Annual rate contracts for rewinding and repair of a plant's motors

Price and timing

Rewinding work carries a 1-year warranty. Typical turnaround is within 7 days, and urgent jobs are scheduled as needed. We quote each job in writing; prices aren't published because copper and material costs change.

Alternator rewinding

An enclosed generator set in a plant room

We rewind and repair alternators, and test them before they go back.

Who it's for

Plants and institutions that run their own generating sets and need a failed alternator winding brought back.

What's included

  • Rewinding and repair of alternator windings
  • Testing before dispatch

Price and timing

Rewinding work carries a 1-year warranty. Send the alternator's nameplate (kVA, voltage, RPM, make) for a quote. We quote each job in writing; prices aren't published because copper and material costs change.

Transformer rewinding and maintenance

Transformers and overhead conductors at an outdoor electrical substation

We rewind and repair transformers, and handle routine transformer maintenance at your substation.

Who it's for

Factories and campuses with their own 11 kV or 33 kV substations.

What's included

  • Rewinding and repair of transformers
  • Transformer oil filtration
  • Gasket replacement and attending to leaking bushings
  • Breather replacement
  • Earth-pit testing

Price and timing

Send the transformer's nameplate rating (kVA and voltage ratio) and we'll confirm whether we can take the job. We quote each job in writing; prices aren't published because copper and material costs change.

Control panel repair and supply

An open industrial control panel with breakers, contactors and wiring

We repair electric control panels, and supply and install new ones.

Who it's for

Plants with starter, distribution or process control panels that need repair or replacement.

What's included

  • Control panel repair
  • Supply of new control panels
  • Installation

Price and timing

Share the panel's drawings or photos and what it controls so we can quote. We quote each job in writing; prices aren't published because copper and material costs change.

HT/LT cable supply and laying

Drums of black power cable on a concrete floor

We supply and install HT and LT cables, including the trench work.

Who it's for

Plants re-routing or replacing power cables, and buildings getting a new main supply.

What's included

  • Supply of HT and LT cables
  • Excavating and back-filling cable trenches
  • Safely extracting old cables from existing trenches
  • Laying and installing new cable

Electrical wiring and maintenance

Gloved hands testing terminals in an electrical panel with a meter probe

We do electrical wiring and maintenance work for offices, buildings and plants.

Who it's for

Factory offices, campuses and institutions that need new wiring or ongoing upkeep.

What's included

  • Office and building electrification: light and power points, conduit and switchboards
  • Electrical maintenance

Price and timing

Share the building layout or a list of points needed and we'll quote. We quote each job in writing; prices aren't published because copper and material costs change.

The tests we run, and what each one tells you

Our rewinds use dual-coated super-enamelled copper wire, fibreglass sleeves, F-class insulating material and varnish. Before a machine goes back, it's tested:

AC/DC Hi-Pot test
A voltage well above normal running voltage is applied between the winding and the frame for a set time. It confirms the insulation can take electrical stress without breaking down.
Surge comparison test
Fast voltage pulses are sent into each phase and the waveforms are compared. It shows turn-to-turn and phase faults that a simple insulation-resistance reading can miss.
Tan Delta test
Measures the dielectric loss in the insulation, mostly on HT machines and transformers. A rising value points to ageing, moisture or contamination.
PI (polarisation index) test
The insulation resistance after 10 minutes divided by the reading after 1 minute (IEEE 43). A low ratio suggests moisture or dirt in the winding.

What each test shows is general background, summarised from the EASA summary of IEEE 43 and standard practice (as of October 2026).

How a rewinding job usually goes

  1. Send the details

    Call or email with the nameplate details (HP or kW, voltage, RPM, make) and what went wrong. A photo of the nameplate helps.

  2. Written quote

    We confirm whether we can take the job and send a written quote. Prices aren't published because copper and material costs change.

  3. Rewound at our workshop

    Rewinding is quoted at our Loni Kh. workshop. Talk to us about getting the motor here.

  4. Tested before it leaves

    Hi-Pot, surge comparison, Tan Delta and PI tests, plus routine checks, as the machine needs.

  5. Back in service

    Rewinding work carries a 1-year warranty. Typical turnaround is within 7 days.

Questions plant engineers ask

What is the largest motor you can rewind?

Motors up to 500 HP, on LT and on HT up to 11 kV. For a bigger machine, call with the nameplate details and we'll tell you whether we can take it.

How long does a rewind take?

Typical turnaround is within 7 days. Urgent jobs are scheduled as needed, so call Manjeet to talk through your deadline.

Do you give a warranty?

Yes. Rewinding work carries a 1-year warranty. Ask for the warranty terms with your quote.

What tests do you run after rewinding?

AC/DC Hi-Pot, surge comparison, Tan Delta and PI (polarisation index) tests, plus routine tests, as the machine needs.

What materials do you use for rewinding?

Dual-coated super-enamelled copper wire, fibreglass sleeves, F-class insulating material and varnish.

Do you take annual rate contracts?

Yes, for rewinding and repair of a plant's motors. Send your motor list and contract period and we'll quote rates.

How do I get a price?

Send the nameplate details (HP or kW, voltage, RPM, make) and what went wrong, by phone, email or the form on our contact page. We don't publish prices because copper and material costs change.
