Tata Power commissions India’s first Natural Ester filled distribution transformer in Mumbai

Tata Power, India’s largest integrated company, has commissioned India’s first Natural Ester filled distribution transformers across the Mumbai distribution area. The company has introduced Natural Ester filled distribution transformers across the Mumbai distribution area. The objective of introducing these green and fire safe installations is to ensure safe and sustainable distribution of electricity. A pioneer in providing reliable and uninterrupted power to the city of Mumbai, Tata Power caters to over 500,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers. The company is committed to implementing innovative technology in its day to day operations and has taken a significant step with the introduction of Natural Ester filled distribution transformers. The Natural Esters fluids have a high fire point (350 degree Celsius) and eliminate any risk of pool fires in the electrical installation as they are self-extinguishing. In comparison to the conventional mineral oil filled distribution transformers, this fluid provides improved fire safety for the densely populated areas within Tata Power’s service area. The fluid is made from a carbon neutral renewable resource, is biodegradable, non-toxic and non-hazardous in soil and water.
