An energy delivery company located in the Northeast United States experienced a rare double transformer failure, leaving the utility in a precarious position. While a mobile transformer was energized to temporarily meet peak summer energy demands, the utility required a new transformer in 14 weeks when industry lead times were at 30-40 weeks.<\/p>\n
Upon learning of the customer\u2019s predicament, SPX Transformer Solutions\u2019 engineering, production planning and operations teams in the Goldsboro manufacturing facility began exploring possibilities for an out-of-the-box solution that would meet the tight deadline. They developed a contingency production schedule that could accommodate manufacturing the specified transformer but also meant impacting delivery dates for other Transformer Solutions\u2019 customers.<\/p>\n
All electric utility companies are faced with emergencies on occasion and understand the complexities and stress that can arise in these situations. With this common ground comes a sense of camaraderie throughout the country and a willingness to work together toward the best outcome for those they serve. Once the other customers understood the emergency, they agreed to reasonable schedule changes to support a utility in need.<\/p>\n
Just 13 weeks after the initial call from a customer with an urgent request, SPX Transformer Solutions designed, produced, tested and delivered a base 33 MVA, 115kV delta\u201313.2kV wye transformer. The completed unit was delivered to the substation, allowing the utility to meet its start-up date and keep thousands of customers\u2019 homes and businesses energized.<\/p>\n
The utility\u2019s substation operations and maintenance lead engineer acknowledged the team in a final report after the unit was put into service. \u201cSPX should be congratulated and acknowledged for providing a transformer in such a short period of time to help us meet our customers\u2019 needs. I truly appreciate what you have all done and your help in resolving this problem. Truly a team effort!!!\u201d<\/p>\n
Meeting our customers\u2019 requirements is what we do well and why customers rely on SPX Transformer Solutions!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
