520 Large Power Transformers have long been a concern for the
U.S. Electricity Sector, because the failure of a single
unit can cause service interruption and lead to collateral
damage, and there could be difficulties in quickly
replacing them. This book assesses the procurement and
supply environment of large power transformers (LPTs). Key
industry sources have identified the limited availability
of spare LPTs as a potential issue for critical
infrastructure resilience in the United States, and both
the public and private sectors have been undertaking a
variety of efforts to address this concern.
