February 25, 2016 I The Lovell Chronicle I 5
BY PATTI CARPENTER
A power outage on Sat-
urday affected service to
577 Rocky Mountain Pow-
er customers in Frannie,
Deaver, Cowley and even a
few in rural Lovell.
According to Rocky
Mountain Power spokes-
man Dave Eskelsen, a dis-
tribution feeder "flashed
over" (arched), tripping a
breaker at the Frannie sub-
station. He said workers
found an insulator leading
to an underground line had
failed, automatically caus-
ing the circuit breaker to
trip, He said it was unclear
what the root cause of the
insulator's failure was.
The outage began at
1:44 p.m. and workers were
able to fully restore service
to most customers by 4:24
p.m.
Eskelsen noted
that workers physical-
ly checked the breaker as
a safety measure after re-
pairing the insulator. He
said the faulty insulator
was found fairly quickly,
but it took some time to
establish that the trans-
former at the substation
was safe before restoring
power.
During the nearly three
hours of darkness, homes
went dark, businesses
came to a standstill and a
basketball game at Rocky
Mountain High School
was interrupted.
