Moores Mill Road

This is a prime example why Indianapolis Power and Light will not let any lineman within minimum approach distance without a live line restriction on the circuit. There is no doubt that "one shots" save lives. It did mine.

Before I issue and OK TO work hot with a hold in case of relay to any field crews I check my maps against their work location, Have the reclosing relays blocked at all terminals and tagged, I have Do Not Reclose tags applied to all CB control handles, I apply SCADA inhibits to prevent my from reclosing the circuit, and I update my mimic board to indicate work on the circuit.

What's up with the train at the end?

епать вот это  короткое замыкание !!

Dont you yanks have fuses? I pity the poor tree. If it was me I'd ring the electricity board and tell them to switch off.

The reclosers/breaks had been taken out for testing. Meanwhile, a tree trimming crew started this mess.

You mean the breakers were shorted out of the circuit?

that is a contract line crew pulling maintanance...it is a 35kV system with a 12 or 13kV underbuilt and the two circuits got together and relay had an issue with a breaker...we have watched this video in detail and discuss this same video in a lot of our safety meetings with our new hires....

hold on 35kV means 35,000 volts right?.....yay..I SO SMART..I SO SMART!

its a fucking warzone out there.I would not know where t go.5/5
