Metcalf Sniper Attack
I was on duty as security for a.. semi secret substation designated as critical infrastructure that night. In the Bay Area, we just had to divert power a little bit. It basically didn’t affect the grid at all.Everyone was all a little more worried as to if this was isolated, if we were next, etc etc.Transformers that are small are often on hand and easy to swap out. But some of the bigger ones have months long  lead times. The facility we were at had transformers that had a 6 month lead time from Germany to replace them and they had to be sent via boat as they wouldn’t fit in planes.The average person isn’t going to know that about transformers. Which leads more credence to the fact it’s an inside job.
