Research Transformer Institute was established in 1959 (Decision of the Council of Ministers of the USSR No. 962 dtd. 07.08.1959).
By the order of the State Committee on Electrical Engineering with the Gosplan of the USSR No.113 of 21.10.1963 the Institute was conferred status of the All-Union Transformer Institute (VIT). In 1969 it was set a scientific engineering centre (SEC) of the Soviet Union in the field of transformer building. SEC carried out research and engineering developments and ensured coordination of works of 14 enterprises, 7 special design departments in the field of scientific and technological progress.
By the order of the Ministry of Industrial Policy of Ukraine No. 98 of 31.07.1992 the Institute was appointed the parent organization in the field of the development of power transformer equipment and high-voltage apparatus.
Under the Decree of the President of Ukraine No. 210/93 of 15.06.1993 “On Corporatization of State-Owned Enterprises”, by the direction of Zaporozhye Regional Council of People’s Deputies No.27 of 24.01.1995 the Institute was reorganized into Open Stock Company “Ukrainian Research, Design and Technological Transformer Institute” (OSC “VIT”).
