Reconditioned Transformers
We offer a range of reconditioned or remanufactured electrical transformers that run like new. Our experts can help you determine if purchasing a reconditioned or remanufactured electrical transformer is the right option for you. In some cases, a reconditioned transformer offers increased cost efficiency and expediency.
Due to our nationwide service area, we occasionally acquire previously owned transformers that meet our exacting standards and put them through a comprehensive testing and certification process before making them available to you. Our engineers test, inspect, clean and refurbish all units before certifying all products and adding to our catalog.
ELSCO’s certified, pre-owned transformers range from 500 kVA to 3,750 kVA. The availability of specific ratings will vary over time. We typically stock a variety of kVA and voltages in our reconditioned or remanufactured dry types, with fewer reconditioned padmounts, as most padmounts we have are new.
To determine the availability of a pre-owned transformer to meet your specifications, please call us at 800-232-9002.
All units can also be modified to match your existing line-up. Because of our commitment to quality, we include a one-year warranty on all parts and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the answers to the most common questions we receive about repairs:
What Dry Type Transformer Repairs Does ELSCO Perform?
ELSCO performs a wide range of dry type transformer repairs for commercial and industrial facilities, including coil rewinding, insulation replacement, core inspection and electrical testing. Our engineers evaluate each unit to determine the most practical repair approach and walk you through the options before any work begins.
When Should You Repair a Transformer Instead of Replacing It?
Repairing a transformer is typically the right choice when the unit is relatively new, the damage is isolated and the cost of repair is significantly less than a full replacement. ELSCO’s engineers can assess your unit’s condition and recommend whether a repair, a reconditioned unit or a new transformer is the most cost-effective path forward.
What Is a Reconditioned Transformer?
A reconditioned transformer is a previously owned unit that has been tested, inspected, cleaned and refurbished to meet ELSCO’s quality standards. ELSCO’s certified pre-owned dry type transformers are available in the 500 to 3,750 kVA range and come with a one-year warranty on all parts and performance. When an extensive repair or custom build would create unacceptable downtime, a reconditioned unit or a retrofitted in-stock unit can be a faster path to getting your facility back online.
