Omicron Logo

OMICRON was founded over 30 years ago in a small town in Austria where we set out to develop compact test sets for testing protection and measurement devices in utilities.
From a small group of dedicated engineers, we have grown into an international company with 24 offices worldwide and customers in over 160 countries.
Although our product range and the possible areas of application have increased, some elements have remained constant:
Our working life revolves around energy – through energy, dedication and the creative minds of our team we are able to provide you with products, solutions and services that allow your electrical power system to run smoothly, safely and efficiently.
We chose to sponsor IEEE PowerAfrica Conference 2020 to support  African electrical engineers in fostering technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity via our common value of knowledge sharing.
