Frequently Asked Questions — Southampton
Lead times for transformers and switchgear delivered to Southampton depend on the specification, scope of supply, order volume and prevailing factory load — distribution transformers (11–33 kV, up to 5 MVA) typically build and test faster than power transformers (33 kV and above, up to 60 MVA), and every quoted programme includes witnessed Factory Acceptance Testing and agreed delivery terms.
