I would like to thank all of the reviewers who volunteered for this effort and donated their time, and would like to encourage everyone associated with IEEE Transformers Committee activities to consider becoming a Reviewer. I would like to encourage those Reviewers that already have an account on IEEE Manuscript Central to keep their profile information updated and complete the areas for key words and areas of interest. We need more reviewers and I encourage any of you that have not signed up as reviewers to sign up per the instructions at the end of this document.

It is important for all interested individuals to follow the norm for writing papers as provided in IEEE; the link is http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/authors/authors_journals.html and the link to upload the paper is http://mchelp.manuscriptcentral.com/gethelpnow/training/author/.

Please inform me at [e-mail] as soon as you do sign up so that we are able to utilize your efforts.

I would also like to take this opportunity to personally acknowledge the reviewers involved in the transformer committee who have been regularly and consistently reviewing papers. This is an important contribution since it maintains the high standards for our papers and it gives back to the industry their expert knowledge.

Special mention must also go out to the editors who have worked hard to make this possible; they are Dr Kulkarni, Dr. Francisco De Leon, Dr. Reza Iravani and Dr. Wilsun Xu.

Respectfully Submitted,

Sanjib Som

Editor, IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery from Transformer Committee
