Welcome to Tech Corner – A Weekly Feature Article About Transformer Testing & Maintenance

Every week we are going to have a short teaser that may take you all of about thirty seconds to read. If the topic is of interest to you, you can click on a link that will take you deeper into our website for a two or three minute presentation that will give you some additional insight into the topic we are presenting that week. We will also identify some sources of further information for you in case you want to follow up on the topic further. We have plans to include both some stand-alone topics, each to be addressed by one weekly entry, as well as some “multi-parters” that may take a few weeks for us to present more completely.

We are going to start out with those topics that we think you will be interested in. That probably will prove to be valuable, since we talk to so many of you regularly. This feature will be even more worthwhile, though, if you get a chance to suggest topics of interest. If there is something that interests you, particularly if you feel it might also be of interest to others, please fill out the simple form below. It should only take you a minute or two. We will do the rest, and we will keep your contribution anonymous.

We are going to do our best to keep it entertaining and informative, but brief. We expect that it won’t be very long before you start making this a regular weekly stop.
