Company Profile

Foundation

SERGI “Société Générale d’Etudes et de Réalisations Industrielles” was created in 1955 for the design and manufacture of oil-filled transformer fire extinguishing systems. Since then, the company has been specialised in the transformer fire protection business.

In 1957, SERGI and Electricité de France invented the Transformer Nitrogen “Drain and Stir” Fire Protection.


	Research Programme

		In 1992 the company started intense investigation in order to understand all parameters related to transformer explosions and fire. SERGI built up a Database of transformer explosions, compiling all information gathered since 1955. In 1995, after analysing the Database, SERGI decided to launch an extensive Research Programme.
