Typically, a design review involves a physical meeting on-site at the transformer manufacturing facility. However, with COVID-19-driven travel restrictions preventing representatives of companies who purchase transformers from traveling to manufacturing locations, remote design reviews are becoming increasingly utilized. To help maximize the efficiency of these meetings, manufacturers should prepare a repository of images and video clips that showcase the key design and construction features of their products. They should also choose a remote technology platform that augments communication and collaboration by offering sketching, whiteboard and screen sharing functionality. This will allow for more in-depth discussion on topics such as tap changers, controls and devices, mechanical considerations and factory acceptance testing. Ideally, these discussions should be conducted over video with a live screen sharing capability. This will ensure that there are no misunderstandings and that all aspects of the design are understood.
