So they blew the transformer. Assuming all hands on deck situation, how fast can they replace it?

Just talked to a buddy of mine so I’ll answer my own question. He said if there was a line crew on site and they had a transformer, it’d still take a couple of hours.

Did they just update their lighting system in the offseason to LEDs and didn’t check to see if it could handle the load? That would be my guess.

I don't know, but doesn't led lighting use significantly less power than what they usually replacing?

Leave it to FSU to screw up turning on the lights. Do they not test this the night before?

I'm no electrician, but shouldn't there be a way to hook up a generator, or generators to power the lights?
