CG Power Systems is one of the world’s top ten manufacturers of three-phase transformers. Crompton Greaves (CG) is part of the $3bn Avantha Group, a conglomerate with an impressive global footprint.

Since its inception, CG has been synonymous with electricity: in 1875, a Crompton ‘dynamo’ powered the world’s very first electrically lit house in Colchester, Essex, UK. CG’s India operations were established in 1937, and since then the company has retained its leadership position in the management and application of electrical energy: today it is India’s largest private sector enterprise.
