Yes 100% the owners of the property double checked. They would of even never had known if it wasn't for Hazmat out on site cleaning up the old transformer messed when it spew oil everywhere and the huge mess that was still left and the tags on the transformer.
So they have every piece of paper that the power company has sent them in the 6 months since the transformer was changed out?

They noticed Hazmat, but not the flatbed delivering the TX, the boom truck/crane offloading it, or the power outage while it was being installed?

Yes, I think this is a bad situation for your customer.

Yes this is not a small single unit building. These owners own millions of square feet of buildings as an investment group and this is one of many building they own in many states. This building also has twenty commercial tenants and the property group is based out of state so yes they did not notice any of this work.
