Defense Case Study Anderson Engineering has helped defend many national and international manufacturers. During the testing of a very large transformer a failure occurred on a capacitor bank. There were found multiple failed capacitors of the many hundreds that make up the capacitor banks. The individual capacitors were catalogued and tested for their characteristics. The failed capacitors were disassembled and the points of failure were well documented. It was found that the capacitors were damaged during the testing of the transformer. The damage was identified as being caused by high voltage. The high voltage damage was caused by the testing. The capacitors were found to have failed due to the undo stress supplied by those performing the testing. Rack with Multiple Capa
