All-Metal Substations
Introduction to All-Metal Substations
A Robust, Durable, and Safe Power Distribution Solution
All-metal substations are one of the most advanced types of power distribution units, where all electrical components—including transformer, medium voltage switchgear, and low voltage panels—are installed within a unified, metal-enclosed structure. This design provides high mechanical protection, enhanced safety, and resistance against harsh environmental conditions. Iran Transfo Substation Development designs and manufactures these substations in compliance with international standards, utilizing advanced engineering expertise.

FAQ
- What is an all-metal substation?
- An all-metal substation is a type of power distribution station in which all equipment is installed inside a strong, fully enclosed metal housing.
- Where can all-metal substations be used?
- These substations are suitable for harsh environments such as industrial zones, urban areas, deserts, or humid climates.
- What is the difference between all-metal and compact substations?
- All-metal substations are generally used for higher capacities and more demanding environments, while compact substations are designed for limited space applications.
- Can all-metal substations be customized?
- Yes, Iran Transfo Substation Development customizes these substations based on project requirements, voltage level, panel type, and installation conditions.
- Are these substations waterproof and dustproof?
- Yes, they are built with high protection grades (e.g., IP54) to resist dust, moisture, and corrosion.
