CG won the contract following a public tender and pledged to provide the transmission network equipment within five months of the contract signing.

The transformers are polymeric insulated products, which are lightweight, flame-resistant and proven to be effective against deterioration and age.

This contract comes after a previous partnership between CG and KEPCO for the supply of Instrument Transformers (IT).
