Most likely primary side (6-7kV) fuse cutout open. Affects small number of customers. Unfortunately requires a lineman to replace and/or clear fault. Thank goodness for reclosers (circuit breaker-like overcurrent devices)! The power in rural areas is much more reliable because of them as things like a tree branch, squirrel, snake, etc. causing a fault that would wipe out a fuse get cleared automatically. A persistent fault (wire down, tree on line, etc.) will trip it out and send a signal for crew dispatch of course. If your power goes out, comes back on for a bit and goes off again in cyclical fashion approx 3 times then stays off that's a recloser in action. They don't protect individual home feeds, however so the fuse opens on your particular pole pig it's gonna be out until you see a bucket truck. I was awoken around 01:24 this AM by alarms and pointed the PTZ in the usual direction and saw green flashes every time the UPS engaged. There's a section of road to our north that has lots of tree branches near a single 6kV overhead and every time it rains hard this has been happening. Fortunately they are small enough to burn off and NOT trip the line off but it causes noticeable anomalies that our UPS' take action on. Sometimes bigger limbs do cause faults on that run and trip that line out but we have isolation switches in several places (along with 3 phases) so our power comes back relatively quickly. Far cry from what it was 40 years ago. Barely half an inch from those storms, no wind, and some DEEP rumbles as the lightning seemed to pick up once the initial part passed to our east. At least we got some nice cooler weather ahead! Wish it would last longer though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midatlanticweather Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 0.65 from this system.. That is a good amount... I was expecting less, but happy to have it! Came at the right time too for great sleep... until the massive strike that scared my dog to death at 2 am! I had a friend that would not sleep the rest of the night! It was super loud, so I do not blame her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronTy Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 It's been dump'n on and off all day. Please baby Jesus is it too much to ask for just ONE day like this in the winter with highs below freezing? All I want is one day per year, that's all I ask. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxUSAF Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Ensembles and Ops all seem set with east coast ridging for the foreseeable future. West coast trough or neutral heights with low heights over the pole. So probably not a lot of pleasant fall weather yet. But the pattern would be more conducive to CONUS landfalling tropical systems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
