I wonder if any "naughtiness" happened during the blackout. Only helicopter passing overhead here in Diego.

The 66/33kV Transformer 1 at Westmoorings S/S is pretty much destroyed now. They re-routed power through the 66/33kV Transformer 2. Things are not over as yet though, since this leaves the Western system unstable. And Westmoorings S/S is pretty much the main thoroughfare for power to feed the west.

In short, hopefully not. We pulled Diamond Vale Substation which feeds pretty much all of Diego Martin out of the west system and put it on another system. Therefore the load on the remaining transformer should be considerably less.
