How buying from us works
Spec it.
Send the quote form or a photo of the nameplate. Two minutes.
Priced in 48 hours.
Firm price, lead time, and unit history. If we can't source it, we say so and point you somewhere that can.
Tested and documented.
Every unit passes turns-ratio, insulation resistance, winding resistance, and oil testing before it ships. You get the full report.
Delivered.
We handle freight, rigging coordination, and customs on cross-border units. Most deliveries land in 2–6 weeks.
Electrical contractors who just got quoted 40 weeks. Plant electricians with a transformer running hot. Project managers on renewable builds where the transformer is the critical path. Municipal utilities that are too small to get an OEM's attention. If you're waiting on iron, we can probably shorten the wait.
Straight answers, tested equipment
Every unit is proven, not promised
A reconditioned transformer from Westgrid ships with a complete electrical test report — turns ratio, insulation resistance, winding resistance, power factor where applicable, and oil analysis on liquid-filled units. If a unit doesn't pass, you never see it.
Backed by 30 years of BC infrastructure
Westgrid Power is part of the Driftwood group. Driftwood Communications has built and maintained critical infrastructure across Western Canada since the 1990s — we know what it means when your project is waiting on one piece of equipment.
Local, in every way that matters
CAD pricing. Duty and brokerage handled. Freight to your site or laydown yard. A phone number in your time zone that a person answers. Western Canada is home turf — but if the project's anywhere else in North America, we'll ship there too.
Common questions
How fast is delivery, really?
Units in our BC yard ship in 1–2 weeks. Sourced units typically land in 2–6 weeks including freight. Compare that with 40–100 week OEM lead times on new medium-power transformers — that gap is the whole reason we exist.
Why are there no prices on the site?
Every quote is a firm number in CAD with freight to your site included — and freight, voltage configuration, and accessories genuinely move the price. Rather than post numbers that would be wrong for your situation, we quote firm within 48 hours, usually same day.
What does "reconditioned and tested" actually mean?
Before a unit ships it passes turns-ratio, insulation resistance, and winding resistance testing, plus oil analysis on liquid-filled units. You get the written report with the equipment, and a 1-year warranty is standard on every sale.
Do you buy used equipment too?
Yes — working or not, single units or full yard clear-outs. We pay above scrap for testable equipment and handle pickup, oil handling, and the paperwork. See "Sell your equipment" for how it works.
More transformer-specific questions — testing, sizing, voltages — are answered on the transformers page.
Have surplus transformers or switchgear?
Decommissioning a plant, upgrading a substation, or clearing a laydown yard? We buy retired and surplus units — working or not. Testable equipment earns above scrap value, because we recondition and resell it instead of melting it down.
You deal with one buyer for the whole lot: we handle pickup, rigging, oil handling, and the transfer paperwork.
