As part of its ongoing maintenance and upgrade program, Power and Water is further protecting the 66kV line along the Arnhem Highway using ‘hot sticks’, a live line procedure to changeover insulators. Power and Water estimate that 40% of units tripping and causing power outages in this area are caused by lightning strikes which affect not just residents but big operations such as the Mt Bundy and Tom’s Gully mines. Other causes are from trees and animals coming into contact with the lines. > > >
