First look in substation

Just before all the self isolation and not being closer  than 6 foot to anyone else I had a chat with a couple of DNO engineers who were doing insulation tests on the  HV cables going to/from a sustation at the end of the road the 11Kv cables are tested at 15 Kv to Earth not sure if they used AC or DC. Another thing was the that I never realised just how big the fuse holders for the outgoing LV cables are I asked what size the fuses were and they told me they were 400 amps. I was just being nosey but it's interesting to me to see just where my juice comes from which is a rather scruffy 500 KVA transformer

    I, one of my daughters and one of my granddaughters are all somewhere on the Autistic spectrum as are/were my father, mother and brother (only my father and I are/were electrical engineers ?). The syndrome is somewhat different in males and females and is rarely diagnosed in girls.




    All formally diagnosed?


    Do be careful of self-diagnosis! And if you do get a diagnosis, what will you do with it?


    Arguably, we are all somewhere on the spectrum.


    Certainly nothing to be ashamed of. If somebody seems to be upset by a remark, try saying, "I can be autistic if I want to." or perhaps just think it. ?
