Who Doble Engineering Are

The company that defined transformer insulation testing

Doble Engineering Company, founded in 1920 and based in Watertown, Massachusetts, is one of the two names that dominate high-voltage electrical apparatus testing worldwide. Doble effectively created the field: the power factor (tan delta) insulation test that every utility uses to judge whether a transformer, bushing or circuit breaker is safe to keep in service was industrialised by Doble, and the M-series test sets that perform it — the M4100 and now the M7100 — have been the reference instruments in substations for decades.

Doble is now part of ESCO Technologies and has grown by absorbing several other respected test-equipment makers, so a modern “Doble” catalogue actually spans five brand lineages. That matters when you own the equipment: your instrument may carry a Vanguard, ISA, Phenix, TECHiMP or Morgan Schaffer badge and still be a Doble product today.

Their range covers offline diagnostics (power factor, SFRA, turns ratio, winding resistance, breaker timing, contact resistance), protection relay testing, partial discharge measurement, dissolved gas analysis, and permanently installed online condition monitoring — plus the software and databases that benchmark results against a very large global test dataset.

What Doble instruments actually test

Power transformers

Insulation power factor and capacitance, bushing condition, turns ratio, winding resistance, tap changer contacts, sweep frequency response for winding deformation, and dissolved gas analysis of the oil.

Circuit breakers

Contact timing, travel and velocity curves, coil current signatures, contact and joint resistance, and vacuum interrupter integrity.

Instrument transformers

CT and VT ratio, polarity, saturation curve, burden, excitation and insulation resistance.

Protection relays

Secondary and primary injection testing of overcurrent, distance, differential and auto-reclose schemes, including IEC 61850 GOOSE and sampled values.

Cables, GIS & rotating machines

VLF hipot and fault location, partial discharge measurement and location, and stator insulation diagnostics on generators and large motors.

Surge arresters & batteries

Metal-oxide arrester leakage current analysis and substation battery capacity and impedance testing.

Five Brands, One Catalogue

Check the badge on your instrument

If your test set carries any of these names, it sits inside the Doble family today — and we repair all of them.

What Actually Fails

Common faults on Doble & Vanguard instruments

Test instruments live hard lives — hot substations, unstable supply, long road journeys and the occasional flashover on the object under test.

HV Output & Amplifier Stages

Blown output transistors, failed power amplifier modules and damaged HV transformers in relay test sets and dielectric test equipment — usually after a flashover, a shorted test object or a wiring error on site.

Control & Processor Boards

Dead CPU boards, corrupt firmware, failed EEPROM/flash, RTC battery damage and bus faults that leave the instrument stuck at boot or unable to complete a test sequence.

Displays, Keypads & Printers

Failed LCD/VFD panels, dead backlights, unresponsive membrane keypads and jammed thermal printers on CT-series, WRM, ATRT and TDR instruments — the most common complaint on ageing field sets.

Power Supply & Charging Circuits

SMPS failures, mains input damage from unstable substation supply, failed battery charging circuits and swollen internal battery packs on portable, battery-powered field instruments.

Measurement & Acquisition Channels

Drifting or dead measurement channels, failed ADCs, damaged input protection, blown current shunts and open sense inputs that cause out-of-tolerance or non-repeatable readings.

Transducers, Leads & Interfaces

Broken linear/rotary travel transducers, damaged interface boxes, failed comms ports (RS-232/USB/Ethernet) and cut or intermittent test lead assemblies on breaker analysers.

How It Works

From faulty test set to working instrument

01

Send Us the Instrument

Courier the unit to our Vadodara facility with a short note on the symptom. Include leads and transducers if the fault might be in them — see our shipping guide for packing guidance.

02

Free Diagnosis & Quote

Our engineers trace the fault to component level and send you a written report with the root cause, the parts required and a fixed quote. No obligation to proceed.

03

Component-Level Repair

Repaired on ESD-safe benches — board-level rework, component replacement, and reverse engineering of obsolete sections where the OEM no longer supplies spares.

04

Functional Test & Return

The instrument is powered up and functionally verified across its measurement ranges, documented, and dispatched back to you with a written warranty on the repair.

Please note: we do not offer courier pickup or drop, and we do not carry out on-site installation or commissioning of test equipment. Instruments are shipped to our Vadodara facility and returned by courier after repair. Where another repairer has already opened the unit, an inspection charge applies — we will tell you what it is before you ship.

Doble test equipment repair in India — what your options actually are

A Doble test set is a capital instrument. An M4100 power factor analyser, an M5500 sweep frequency response analyser or an F6150 relay test system represents a serious investment, and when one fails the substation testing programme it supports stops with it. Utilities, transformer manufacturers, EPC contractors and third-party testing agencies across India all face the same three choices when that happens: send the unit abroad for OEM service, replace it outright, or have it repaired independently.

For an in-warranty or contract-covered instrument, the OEM route is the right one and we will say so. The picture changes once the unit is out of warranty — and it changes completely once the model has been declared end-of-life. A great deal of the Doble and Vanguard equipment working in Indian substations today falls into that second category: Vanguard CT-6500 and CT-7500 breaker timers, WRM-10 and WRM-40 winding resistance meters, ATO-400 and DMOM-200 micro-ohmmeters, ATRT-01 and ATRT-03 turns ratio testers, EZCT-2000A CT analysers and IRM-5000 megohmmeters are all still in daily service, and all predate the current catalogue. These instruments are mechanically sound and metrologically capable; what usually fails is a power supply, a display, a keypad, a printer or a single measurement channel.

That is the work Synchronics does. We are an independent industrial electronics repair company based in Vadodara, Gujarat, working at component level on boards that most repairers replace wholesale. Our engineers trace faults on the actual circuit rather than swapping modules, which is the only viable approach when the module in question has not been manufactured for fifteen years. Where a specific obsolete component cannot be sourced at all, our PCB reverse engineering team can redesign that section of the board to restore the original function.

We are deliberately clear about what we are not. We are not an authorised Doble service partner, we do not hold OEM calibration accreditation, and we do not pretend that a repaired instrument carries a NABL certificate. What we provide is a free component-level diagnosis, a fixed written quote before any work begins, a documented repair, functional verification against our reference standards, and a written warranty. If a NABL-accredited calibration certificate is required for your audit trail, have the unit calibrated at an accredited laboratory once we have restored it to working order — and if we believe an instrument is beyond economic repair, we will tell you that instead of taking your money.

We handle the full breadth of the Doble family: power transformer diagnostics (M4100, M5400, M5500 SFRA, M7100, TD 5000, TDX 5000, STS 4000/5000), circuit breaker analysis (CBA 1000/2000/3000, CT-7000 S3, CT-8000 S3, TDR900, TDR9100, DigiTMR), contact resistance (MRM series, AUTO-OHM 10, AUTO-OHM 200 S4), instrument transformer testing (iCT1, EZCT-2000C, eKAM), protection relay testing (F6150e, F6150sv, F8200, F8300, DRTS family, RELTEST 1000), partial discharge (AQUILA, Spark P2/P3, PD3U, HFCT and UHF sensors), online monitoring (Calisto DGA monitors, doblePRIME hardware) and the Phenix high-power and utility safety test systems. Ship from Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Pune, Kolkata or anywhere else in India.

If your instrument is an OMICRON rather than a Doble, we repair those too — see our OMICRON test equipment repair page.

FAQs

Doble repair — straight answers

No — and we say so plainly. Synchronics is an independent electronic repair company. We are not affiliated with, authorised by, or endorsed by Doble Engineering Company. All Doble, Vanguard, ISA, Phenix, TECHiMP and Morgan Schaffer names and model numbers are trademarks of their respective owners and are used here only to identify the equipment we repair. If your instrument is still under OEM warranty or contract, go to Doble first — opening it elsewhere may void that cover. We exist for the units that are out of warranty, out of support, or that the OEM has declared end-of-life.

That is exactly the work we do most. Discontinued models — Vanguard CT-6500 and CT-7500 breaker timers, WRM-10/WRM-40 winding resistance meters, ATO-series micro-ohmmeters, ATRT-01/ATRT-03 TTR sets, EZCT-2000A/B, IRM-5000 megohmmeters and older M-series units — are repaired at component level. Where an obsolete IC or module is genuinely unobtainable, our PCB reverse engineering team can redesign that section of the board to restore function.

We functionally test and verify the instrument across its measurement ranges against our reference standards, and we supply a test report with the repair. We are a repair house, not an accredited calibration laboratory — so if you need a NABL-accredited calibration certificate for audit or statutory purposes, have the unit calibrated at an accredited lab after our repair. We will tell you honestly if a unit is drifting beyond what repair alone can correct.

It depends entirely on the fault. A failed keypad, printer or power supply is a modest job; a blown high-voltage amplifier stage or a dead processor board on a large relay test system costs considerably more. Diagnosis is free and the quote is fixed before any work starts — you always see the price before you commit. If we cannot fix it, you pay nothing for the repair attempt.

Most instruments are diagnosed within 48 hours of arrival. Straightforward repairs are usually completed within 5–7 working days. Units needing obsolete-part sourcing or board redesign take longer, and we tell you the realistic timeline in the quote rather than after the fact.

No. Software products — Protection Suite, TDMS, DTA/DTAWeb, PowerBase, doblePRIME Analytics, insideView, trueNorth — are licensed platforms, not repairable hardware, and they are listed on this page only so you can identify your system. We do repair the physical hardware they run alongside: Calisto DGA monitors, doblePRIME IDD and iO units, PD acquisition hardware and sensors.

No — we do not offer courier pickup or drop, and we do not carry out on-site installation or commissioning. You ship the instrument to our Vadodara facility and we ship it back after repair. Our shipping page explains packing and documentation for these instruments.

Yes, but an inspection charge applies where a third party has previously attempted a repair, because tracing someone else's rework takes substantially longer than diagnosing a factory-original fault. We will tell you the inspection charge up front before you ship.
