Triad Utrad made decent transformers.
Problems arose when they tried to subvert the transformer output.
I laughed 'till I hurt when I disassembled my Magnetek 775-2 ferroresonant charger. T/U decided on 25-amp 50PIV 1/2" press fit rectifiers, and electrolytic capacitors that just barely met peak voltages.
That company needed keepers with whips in the engineering dept. and I imagine that farce never changed until they stopped making anything but transformers again.
