From failure to in service for a single transformer in Manhattan is down to 2-3 weeks. That includes design and engineering (my part), permitting, and construction. Interesting. I had always wondered how utilities interact with local permitting. I had assumed they would work something out to have standardized permits for common work which they could leverage during incidents but that seems that's not the case.
