DESCRIPTION:[]\n\nWorkshop 2 (Part 2): The Blueprint Series\n\nNow it’s d
 ecision time. In this session\, participants move from load estimation to 
 sizing the heart of the system—transformers.\n\nThrough a practical\, st
 ep-by-step approach\, you’ll learn to select the right transformer ratin
 g\, apply design margins\, and plan for future expansion like a real engin
 eer. With a focused worked example\, you won’t just choose—you’ll ju
 stify every decision under competitive standards.\n\nThink ahead. Size it 
 right. Build for the future. Compete to win.\n\nSpeaker(s): Elyas\, \n\nAg
