Features

Hitachi Australia has gained considerable generator upgrading and rewinding experience in recent years.
In 2000 Hitachi conducted the emergency rebuilding of Unit 2, 500MW generator at Loy Yang ‘B’ P.S. including core replacement and stator and rotor rewinding. The complete generator rebuild was completed in 3.5 months from generator failure to return to service.
From 2003 to 2006 Hitachi successfully completed the rewinding of the 350MW Units 1 to 4 at Tarong Power Station.
Orders have been secured for future upgrading/ rewinding projects.

Technology developments have enabled Hitachi to offer capacity increases as part of the stator and rotor rewinding projects. These advances enable our customers to benefit from the additional capacity at minimal cost.
