Admagnetics Ltd
Admagnetics is a leading and highly respected manufacturer of wound components. Based in Lancashire, Admagnetics is a family owned company still operating to its engineering led, founding principles.
Admagnetics was founded in 1991 by Alan D Moorhouse MBE. Alan was one of the first designers to realise the significance of the effect of harmonic currents on transformers in power distribution systems.
For many years now Admagnetics has been supplying transformers, chokes and wound components to many high profile projects and equipment, becoming the preferred supplier to our customers.
🏭 Core Business
Admagnetics designs and manufactures specialized power equipment, including:
- Transformers (harmonic mitigating, power, voltage regulators, variacs)
- Chokes, Inductors & Rectifiers
- Standby Power Systems (central battery units)
They focus on custom solutions for industries like construction, OEM machinery, and power distribution.
⚙️ Key Innovations
- Pioneered Harmonic Cancellation Transformers that eliminate triplen harmonics in power systems, addressing issues like circulating currents in delta-star transformers.
- Offer K Factor-rated transformers tailored to mitigate higher-order harmonics (e.g., 5th, 7th) from industrial loads.
