Refurbished, reverse-engineered, or new.
Send us your worn LR65 contacts and we refurbish them where the base material is sound. Where it is not, we machine new OEM-spec replacements, and where the OEM part is long gone we reverse-engineer it from a sample, a drawing, or a model number. That is the difference from a catalog seller: we are the shop making the part. Full LTC rebuild service is available when the whole tap changer needs work.
Maintenance and background.
General Electric LR65 questions.
Are General Electric LR65 LTC contacts still available?
Yes. The original General Electric line is largely out of production, so replacements come from a shop that still makes them. Southern Switch machines and, where the part is obsolete, reverse-engineers the full General Electric LR65 contact set in-house in Palm Harbor, FL, to the original dimensional specification.
Can you refurbish my existing LR65 contacts, or only supply new?
Both. We refurbish customer-supplied General Electric LR65 contacts where the base material is sound, and machine new OEM-spec replacements where it is not. Material certifications are available on request.
How fast can you supply LR65 contacts?
Lead time is confirmed at quote and depends on current material availability. In-stock items ship quickly; reverse-engineered first runs take longer.
