The project is for aftermarket cooling replacements on existing/original transformers, where replacement equipment will have identical physical fit up without undo field modifications (fabrication, welding), and will provide equivalent or greater thermal performance as compared to the original cooling system. The labor and other necessary materials, plans and equipment to perform the installation and transformer oil processing will be bid separately.
