Dry Transformer Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Cast Resin, Vacuum Pressure Impregnated), By Phase (Single Phase, Three Phase), By Voltage (Low, Medium), By Application (Industrial, Commercial, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Transformers are the devices used to regulate the voltage and current running through an electrical circuit. Dry transformers are different from the traditional liquid type transformers as these have no moving parts and make use of air for cooling, which acts as an environmentally friendly insulation system. The windings of dry transformers are encased in epoxy resins. The epoxy resins layer also helps in avoiding corrosion and dust.

The electric core in these transformers is cooled using natural ventilation. This offers the advantage of placing the transformer indoors, inside fireproof vaults, and closer to loads. Dry transformers can be used in a variety of applications and can be installed in outdoor or indoor locations. The efficiency, safety, and economic advantage provided by these transformers will see the market grow at a healthy rate during the given forecast period.  

Based on its type, the global dry transformer market can be segmented into cast resin transformers and vacuum pressure impregnated transformers. The advantage of a long life of the equipment and no need to change LV and HV windings in case of any failures will see the cast resin segment hold a greater market share during the given forecast period. Based on the phase, the global dry transformer market can be segmented into single-phase and three-phase. The growing adoption of three-phase will see the three-phase segment dominate the global dry transformer market.
