DC

The Crestchic DC loadbank fleet is available from 24VDC - 700VDC and 200A -3300A units. These loadbanks are controlled in 1Amp steps via a push button controller (constant current available). Most DC load banks are small and easily portable.

Transformers

Crestchic has a large fleet of containerised transformers from 2.9MVA to 5.8MVA. These transformers are multi-tap and can operate at voltages from 3.3kV to 15kV. Crestchic transformers are supplied in standard ISO type containers fully bunded with save-all bases, complete with MV and LV switchgear.

Specialised loadbanks
