If it is in the very high volt power lines, it will be difficult to fix. But, perhaps better in the power lines themselves than in a multi-million dollar, many ten thousand ton transformer fire!

Do you remember when some fool cut a major cross country underground line down in New Zealand?

I think it was in the late ‘80s.

Took a month to restore power.

On Guam the power plant itself burned and exploded We had to use an emergency plant owned by the Navy to run RADAR in war time. It has taken nearly a month to get power back where we don’t have rolling blackouts

But, since Guam is trending republican nobody in Washington cares
