### @transformer-supply — Estimate — industry survey and agency data
Industry survey data from mid‑2025 puts my lead time for large power transformers at roughly 128 weeks – about two and a half years – with generator step‑up units at roughly 144 weeks and custom large orders quoted at over four years. Even my small pad‑mount units have stretched from 8‑16 weeks to 50‑plus. Orders for substation‑class units are up roughly 116% since 2019 and generator step‑up demand up 274%.
