Have you ever wondered what happens to a big transformer when it fails? It's going to be stripped down to see what caused the failure.

That's not going to be a 5 minute fix :eek:

Nor is it going to be a 5 minute strip and remove.
 
It's not going to be a fix. That's scrap. We've been getting it's replacement ready this week.
