Abstract

It’s not necessarily obvious that small changes to a plan, or a seemingly simple data analysis, could have devastating consequences, which is why we need to check numbers, check calculations, and then check again. In transformer terms, we have to: check specifications meet or exceed the need; check designs are appropriate; perform witness testing at the factory to ensure we build what is specified; and then transport the unit safely and without incident to site for installation, commissioning and operation.
