Tsuken Electric IND. Co., Ltd.

Tsuken Electric IND. Co., Ltd. (通研電気工業株式会社) is a Japanese electronics and electrical-engineering company headquartered in Izumi, Japan. It describes itself as a comprehensive electronics enterprise (総合エレクトロニクス企業) that supplies optimal solutions built on advanced communication and network technology. The company's stated mission is to connect customers' sites through high-level communication technology and networks, to watch over their safety and security through monitoring and control technology backed by thorough maintenance systems, and to create products and services in the spirit of a university-originated venture. The company's product portfolio is concentrated in the electric-power and infrastructure sector. Its offerings include hydroelectric power equipment such as dam operation consoles, remote monitoring and control panels for dams, automatic gate control panels for run-of-river dams, and discharge warning devices (siren and speaker types) that alert downstream residents to river flooding. It also supplies thermal and nuclear power equipment, substation equipment including on-site monitoring systems (ITV), transfer-trip signal transmission devices, and CDT transmission devices, as well as distribution equipment such as SVR slave stations, fault-section indicators for high-voltage air switches, and switch control slave stations. Railway-related products such as snow sensors are also listed. Beyond hardware, Tsuken Electric positions itself around digital transformation. In March 2023 it formulated "Tsuken Vision 2031," a long-term direction aimed at corporate transformation and business-model conversion. Its DX promotion policy states that it will use data and digital technologies to accelerate these changes and enhance corporate value, with the goal of providing new value aligned with customer and social needs while establishing competitive advantage. As an employer, the company has published a general business-owner action plan covering April 2024 to March 2027, with goals including promoting childcare-leave use (especially by male employees), supporting women's career development, aiming for women to make up at least 3% of section-chief-level positions and above, and maintaining an average of at least 15 days of paid leave taken per employee. It has also issued a health-management declaration and has been certified as a "Health and Productivity Management Outstanding Organization." The company is led by President and Representative Director Hideyuki Kanno (管野秀幸).
