Craig,
Do you recognise the term "Submarine" as underwater?.
Apparently the DC Link provides an essential power supply for Wellington and a few other places, this makes sure that our over-paid politicians have enough light and heating for their long-haul drinking sessions.

Just wondered if anyone wanted to know how we work on live HV lines,
with Hot Stick work and Live Glove and Barrier work.
Your input Please.
This would be interesting to any Electrical worker.

Craig,
How were things up in Auckland during the power failure, a few years ago?.
I was told that a few of the generators
overheated, around town, is this true?
They had a boat at the port as well with Huge cables running from it to the Network
How did they do this?, do you know.
A power failure like that, I would not wish on anyone, it lasted for ages!.
