Andrew Le Clercq, Castlemaine
I want to sincerely thank all those unnamed legends from Powercor, their subbies, SES, CFA and all others who worked their arses off to initially keep the water at bay from the Castlemaine substation and, when the floodwater had hit the fan, safely shut down the substation and then in an amazingly short turnaround reactivated it without thundering a power surge through all our consumer electrical gizmos…
All during heavy rain, probably up to their ankles in water while dealing with high voltage. Respect.
