About Post Glover
Post Glover Resistors is a standout in the electrical power industry, particularly in the field of power resistors and grounding solutions. What makes them unique is their deep specialization and long-standing expertise—over 100 years of engineering experience focused specifically on resistor technology for industrial, utility, and transit applications. Unlike broader electrical manufacturers, Post Glover offers a niche product line with highly engineered solutions such as neutral grounding resistors (NGRs), dynamic braking resistors, and harmonic filter resistors. This focus allows them to deliver unmatched technical knowledge and product performance tailored to demanding applications.
Another key differentiator is that Post Glover designs and manufactures its products in the USA, ensuring quality control, faster lead times, and adherence to strict industry standards. Their domestic manufacturing also supports compliance with “Buy American” provisions—an important factor for customers in government, defense, and critical infrastructure. Combined with their commitment to custom engineering, responsive customer service, and a reputation for reliability, Post Glover offers a compelling value proposition for companies seeking proven, U.S.-made resistor solutions backed by decades of expertise.

How are Post Glover products typically installed?
Post Glover products are typically installed with careful attention to their mounting position, which should ideally be at 0º degrees to avoid requiring a correction factor on the relay dial. The assembly can accommodate mounting variations from 0º to 180º, but if positioned between 135º and 225º, a +10% correction factor is necessary. Additionally, lateral inclination should not exceed ±30º for optimal functionality.
