Building the Power Resistors industry relies on

The world's foremost resistor manufacturer, Cressall Resistors, offers an unrivalled combination of experience and the widest range of resistor technologies.

Cressall Resistors has 100 years experience in producing power resistors for use in the electro-technical market. With design and manufacturing facilities within the UK, Cressall can supply both standard and custom designed resistors for any application from a few watts up to several megawatts and for operation at any voltage.

We manufacture one of the widest range of electrical power resistors in the world for applications such as dynamic braking for industrial drives and the traction industry, neutral earthing for transformer and generator protection, as well as harmonic filters, motor starters and a range of portable load banks for on-site load testing.

You'll find all you need to know about our resistor types (expanded mesh, edgewound coil, stamped grid, and wirewound) and how we can help electrical engineers worldwide, here on our website. Follow the links at the top of the page to find out more.

In April 2006 Cressall Resistors was aquired by Telema SpA of Italy through their British subsidary TPR Resistors, bringing together Britain's premier resistor technology companies. For more details of the benefits this union will bring to the industry click here.
