Your last generator Maintenance Run

[3930dave]

Piece of cake!

Seeing your post.... thinking I'll need more categories for Utility Awards..... (read-out, Academy Award announcer style...)

A) Top 5 - Frequent Outages

B) Top 5 - Marathon Outages

C) Top 5 - Ultra-Marathon Outages

Ride along with world-travelers like Itchy Boots though.... plenty of people in those areas would be confused by the panic here from a major Grid-Down event, as they live like that "normally".

LOL ...... stranger things have happened... IIRC, this site started out in a teenager's bedroom.

Then again, aggregating info on critical infrastructure performance these days.... might lead to black-helicopters on my lawn !

Speaking of outages and utilities, thought you might like to see a "Genmon" from the other side of the meter... EDIT: I guess I should clarify, the two generators are bottom left and right running at 32MW each at 14.4kV then jumping up to 144kV leaving site.

Finally found a suitable back up power source for my machine shop. A local municipal agency sent this to auction and I picked it up for what I feel was a steal. 325KW, 3 phase. Total hours are just under 600.

We are right in the middle of forest fire country, so the planned outages are happening more and more. A few days without power really impacts us and our customers.

It’s supposed to rain like crazy this weekend, so I plan on getting this serviced and put thru some load testing.
