Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Transformer Monitoring System Market

In Europe, Italy is the hardest-hit country by the COVID-19 outbreak. It is suffering an economic hit due to a lack of revenue from various industries. Other member states in the European Union (EU) have implemented drastic measures and travel restrictions, including partially closing their borders. This is anticipated to impact growth of the transformer monitoring systems market in Europe. Further, the governments in various EU countries are restricting the increments in the cost of various communication services. For instance, the Spanish government banned price increases on electronic telecom networks, as subscribers were unable to switch to another provider, and discontinued all non-progressive fixed and mobile numbering operations.
