Our Story
Since our establishment in 1995, American Electric Components has grown from a dedicated startup into a cornerstone of the electrical transformer industry. As a family-owned and operated company, we have built our reputation on a foundation of trust, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to quality. Our team brings a legacy of expertise to every project, boasting over a century of cumulative experience that has been passed down and refined through generations. This deep well of knowledge is the driving force behind the design, fabrication, and repair of every transformer that leaves our facility.
Our entire operation is housed within an expansive 78,400 sq. ft. property in Vernon, Los Angeles County, featuring a 47,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art shop. By producing and designing all our products in-house, we maintain complete control over the entire manufacturing process. This allows us to ensure the highest standards of quality at every stage, from raw material selection to final testing, and gives us the flexibility to create truly custom solutions tailored to our clients' unique needs.
CUSTOM MAGNETICS, QUICK DELIVERY, AND SUPERIOR QUALITY IS OUR MAIN BUSINESS. EXPEDITED REPAIR, RETROFIT & PROTOTYPES ARE AVAILABLE.
Testing & Quality Assurance
Transformers undergo a series of tests broken down into three classifications: routine, design and prototype. These routine tests are made on all DRY TYPE and LIQUID IMMERSED Transformers to insure quality is met:
- Visual Inspection
- Ratio, Polarity, and Phase Relations
- No-load Losses and Excitation Current
- Applied and Induced Potential Dielectric Test
Our commitment to quality is backed by a comprehensive two-year warranty on all our products.
