Inverter Duty Transformers for Solar Energy

Since 2011, Shilchar Technologies Ltd. has designed and manufactured inverter duty transformers (IDTs) for solar applications. As of December 2025, we have supplied transformers totalling 20 GW capacity worldwide. Pioneered the supply of 3-winding IDTs in India; later developed advanced 4-winding and 5-winding versions.

  • Employ both aluminium and copper foil winding technologies.
  • Highest type-tested rating: 17.3 MVA for 5-winding IDT.
  • Supplied about 5 GW of solar transformers globally, including to the Philippines, Egypt, Kenya, Oman, Chile, and Togo.
  • IDTs feature electrostatic shielding to reduce DC interference.
  • Thermal monitoring and low-loss design improve efficiency and reliability.
  • Constructed robustly to endure extreme environmental conditions.
  • Compatible with inverter du/dt ratios for optimal solar performance.
  • Designed with identical impedance on multiple LV windings to ensure balanced load distribution.
