A TCCS field engineer (Avanti Power Components’ parent company) was mid-startup after the turbine had just come out of a major overhaul when the power transducer on the generator began to fail, preventing the turbine from coming online. With tens of thousands of dollars on the line, the facility needed the turbine running again by any means necessary. It had no spare on the shelf, and the specific transducer model had a lead time of over a month.
