Richmond have on several occasions done a great job repairing power supplies
for us. This enabled us to keep scientific instruments going which would otherwise
have had to be replaced (at considerably higher cost!). I am very pleased with their service.

Richmond Electronics can also include the prestigious Alstom company as one of
its satisfied rail customers. Richmond were asked to manufacture surge
suppression panels for CL86 locomotives. The relays were experiencing burn out
and the introduction of the VRR/VLR surge suppression units reduced the burn out
of relays and so extended their life significantly. Peter Atkins of Alstom says
of his experience of working with Richmond: "They are super people to work with.
They provided us with a quality product which fixed an annoying recurrent problem
for us which was costing us both time and money. The service they offer is very
