Lightning, high winds, and ice are common weather-related power interruptions. Severe weather can cause outage situations that last for several days. Lightning can strike equipment or trees causing them to fall into electrical lines and equipment. To decrease the effects of a lightning strike, we install lightning arrestors at substations and on high voltage equipment.
