At our Surge Arresters facility in Ludvika, we produce and sell surge arresters. New products are developed here, and our markets are located both in Sweden and globally. An arrester protects against overvoltages and is an essential component in a reliable and energy-efficient power system. At our Capacitors unit, we assemble customer-specific medium and high-voltage capacitors for reactive power compensation and harmonic filtering, as well as manufacture DC capacitors for HVDC applications worldwide.

Both operations feature a high degree of automation with numerous robots, winding machines, electrical testing equipment, process ovens, fixtures, etc. We operate around the clock with multiple production shifts.
