A range of resistors: answers to all levels power and voltage
Earthing resistance (MALT)
They protect energy transmission and distribution networks against destruction or disturbance caused by excessive current.
Thus, they can:
- Protect electrical station equipment and networks against possible failures
- Avoid destruction and disruption
Filter resistance // Discharge resistance // Pre-insertion resistance
These resistors are dedicated to High Voltage systems. They can :
- Start and protect by limiting currents and absorbing energy
- Improve signal quality and installation efficiency by eliminating unwanted harmonics HVDC Classic / VSC-HVDC Static Var Compensator (SVC) / STATCOM
Resistor for load banks
Installing a load bank ensures the proper functioning of electrical energy production systems (generators, inverters, etc.). Load banks guarantee a secure return on investment:
- Ensure efficient maintenance of installations
- Increase their lifespan
- Reduce the risk of breakdowns and costly repairs
- Limit polluting emissions
- To avoid forced immobilization of generating sets
- Test their performance
Traction resistors
They are used for the braking of railway locomotives (trains, TGV, tramways).
- AARU resistors
- Braking rheostat
- Auxiliary circuit resistors
Industrial heating resistor
They allow the use of electrical energy in applications related to heating for the chemical, pharmaceutical or food industries.
- Heating elements
- Hot air generator
- Floor heating
Braking resistor
- Braking resistors for variable speed drives
- Ventilated resistors
- Liquid cooling resistors
- Resistors for elevators

Innovation and R&D: technical investments in the service of power resistors
Each year, 5% of turnover is invested in research and development. Type tests are carried out in a research laboratory (lightning strikes, temperature rise tests, dielectric tests).
Technical and local partners
METAL DEPLOYE RESISTOR is a founding member of the Métal Valley association. A structure made up of emblematic industrialists located in the Montbard – Venarey les Laumes basin (Côte d’Or).
The objective of Metal Valley is to promote companies and contribute to the development of the territory in a sustainable way by developing partnerships with the various local and regional players, particularly in terms of employment and the attractiveness of the territory.
From design to training: projects fully taken care of
The design and manufacture of products are adapted to demand. And this thanks to a range designed to meet all needs and all constraints, supported by the best modern technologies and tools: CAS, resistance calculation tool, equipment analysis, internal testing laboratory.
