I just got through redoing a water pumping station that had been dormant for about 6 years. (Used to be owned by Union Oil, our co. was installing new pumps for the new owner.) Rats had chewed through alot of the 4/0 pump feeders and most of the control/PLC wiring which ran through an underground vault and a concrete channel under the MCC. We ended up repulling everything, and I found 2 of the miscreants... One still had his jaws locked into a 480V control wire under the MCC (He was pretty much mummified), the other was in the bottom of the vault)

Right now we're having problems with wild rabbits chewing on things.. Just had to repull 300' of Belden thanks to them [Linked Image]

I know of one other pretty disgusting job I heard on here from Mark (e57) at a crack hotel... Maybe he'd like to relive that for us [Linked Image]
