I recall reading that all the transformers are now made in China.

What could possibly go wrong?

I recall reading that all the transformers are now made in China.

Something like 90% are made overseas. There is a two year time frame to order and get one. A real vulnerability.

We need to harden the ones we have and make spares available.

We have done some work on that.

It is the big ones at the end of long transission lines that are most vulnerable and are hardest to replace.
