The Western HVDC Link

I did originally answer the previous thread, but have since deleted my response and I believe a new thread with a proper and correct title is the correct way of answering. 


More info on the fault here: https://www.energy-reporters.com/transmission/italys-prysmian-under-fire-over-uk-interconnector-failure/ 


Reports suggest an undersea cable fault in the vicinity of Liverpool Bay.

  • I have just spotted an article in The Register (www.theregister.co.uk/.../) that would suggest that the cable fault has been located. 

    “Italian cable contractor Prysmian has not clarified the issues behind the fault, raising fresh doubts over the infrastructure. The company said in a statement that the fault had been located on "pole 2 of the southern part of the link". National Grid clarified that the fault was on the "southern land cable".


    Prysmian declined to comment on The Register's requests for clarification.”
