Transnet is the largest firm in the transportation network of South Africa. It also operates harbours, a railway network and liquid fuel pipeline systems. Cooperation between the railway traction section of this company and Protecta started in 2004, when we delivered the first distance protection devices for railway lines for testing purposes.

Siemens and Protecta devices were tested in the same substation. During the test period both devices performed well but eventually Protecta’s device was selected because of price considerations. Since then, Transnet has been purchasing only Protecta devices to protect railway traction lines. At present, more than 150 such devices are in operation. In 2015 we started delivering the new EuroProt+ devices as well.
