Switchgear


Our experience in the sales and service of HV switchgear is very extensive. We cater for a range of equipment from circuit breakers, ring main units, isolators, load break switches and etc. We can supply both new and refurbished units with a full test certification for return to service operation.

High Voltage Switchgear

Our service technicians have over 30 years experience in this field and our test equipment is of excellent quality ensuring results you can depend on to return the gear to safe operation. We are also experts in the field of finding hard to get spare parts for older manufactured switchgear and have been in the past asked to search and find everything from trip coils, mechanism parts, bushings and contacts etc. OPMI also stocks a range of HV switchgear and parts suitable for purchase and or hire.

Low Voltage Switchgear

OPMI has manufactured many custom built LV switchboards, starter panels, distribution boards and control cubicles. We cater for all facets of the industry from generator synchronising boards to mining distribution boards. Motor starters such as SCR soft starters, VVVF drives and other motor control equipment are also within our scope of supply.


We also offer a service of upgrades for your existing boards to bring them up to the latest standards where required. OPMI stocks an inventory of LV distribution boards, motor starters and mining boxes both for sale and hire as required.

Custom Unitised Switch Rooms

OPMI has designed, assembled, tested and commissioned relocatable switch rooms and control rooms for many years. Our containerised HV switch rooms can be customised to suit power generation plants to mining feeder switch rooms.

We integrate switchgear, control systems and station auxiliary equipment all into one unitised item for easy delivery, installation and commissioning. We can supply new HV switchgear into our projects or reverse engineer around existing used equipment where required to suit our client's budgets and delivery times.

Where we are requested to design the equipment around a loose or nonexistent specification we use our own range of parts including Orion Italia protection relays, OPMI battery chargers and our other preferred suppliers mainly from European based companies to produce a quality product fit for purpose and with budget and reliability in mind.
