UK Expertise in Transformer Design and  Manufacturing

Custom Transformers UK

UK manufactured custom transformers designed and built to meet specialist voltage, rating, installation and application requirements.

Boardman Transformers designs and manufactures custom and bespoke transformers for industrial, commercial, OEM and specialist electrical applications.

From small control transformers through to larger three phase, high-current and special build transformer requirements, our UK-based team can support projects where a standard product range does not meet the required specification.

UK Custom Transformer Manufacturer for Specialist Applications

Not every transformer requirement fits a standard range. Boardman Transformers manufactures custom transformers for customers who need specific voltages, ratings, mounting arrangements, terminations, enclosures or compliance requirements.

Our custom transformer capability covers a wide range of applications, from compact low-power transformers to larger industrial builds. We work with customers to understand the application, electrical requirements and installation environment before recommending a practical transformer solution.

What We Can Manufacture

Custom Control Transformers

Custom control transformers for panels, machinery, automation systems and specialist electrical assemblies.

Custom Three Phase Transformers

Three phase custom transformers for industrial equipment, production environments and larger power applications.

High Current Transformers

Custom transformer designs for applications requiring high-current outputs and robust industrial performance.

Medium Voltage Transformers

Medium voltage transformer solutions available for specialist applications up to 6.6kV.

Custom Enclosed Transformers


We can supply custom-built transformers with suitable enclosures for installations where protection, ventilation, cable entry, IP rating or mounting requirements are important. Enclosure options can be discussed alongside voltage, rating, phase, environmental conditions and compliance needs.

Auto Transformers

Custom single phase and three phase auto transformers for applications where voltage conversion is required without full electrical isolation.

Custom Power Transformers

Boardman can discuss custom power transformer requirements where a standard range is not suitable. Options may include specific voltages, single phase or three phase designs, higher kVA ratings, high-current outputs, mounting requirements and project-specific documentation.

Replacement Transformers

Boardman can help review replacement transformer requirements where an existing unit has failed, become obsolete or needs to be matched for a new installation. Nameplate details, photos, dimensions and voltage information are useful for replacement enquiries.

Frequently Asked Questions

Below are answers to common questions about custom-built transformers, specifications and what to include in an enquiry.

A custom transformer is designed or manufactured around a specific application requirement where a standard transformer range is not suitable. This may include non-standard voltages, ratings, mounting arrangements, terminations, enclosures, documentation or environmental requirements.

Custom and bespoke transformers both refer to transformer solutions built around specific customer requirements. These terms are often used where a standard product does not meet the voltage, rating, installation or application needs of the project.

Yes. Boardman can discuss custom power transformer requirements for industrial, commercial, OEM and specialist electrical applications. Useful information includes primary voltage, secondary voltage, phase, rating, load type, installation details and any documentation requirements.

Yes. If an existing transformer has failed, become obsolete or needs to be matched for a replacement project, send us the nameplate details, photos, dimensions, voltage information and mounting details. We can review whether a standard or custom-built option may be suitable.

Useful information includes primary voltage, secondary voltage, single phase or three phase requirement, VA/kVA/MVA rating, frequency, load type, duty cycle, mounting or enclosure requirements, environmental conditions, compliance needs and quantity required.

Yes. Boardman can discuss one-off custom transformer requirements as well as repeat production requirements for OEM, industrial and specialist electrical applications.
