It's not everyday that we get to see this

A new Transformer is being installed in our area for which work is going on. Tall concrete pillars have been erected at various points and one of them is right in front of our gate.

We have one right in the corner of our street, ever since they installed the new ones we no longer experience power blackouts. Were you guys having similar problems?

I think it is kind of odd that they put the pole right on your property like that, too close to your house, and that guy was quite high up there! Here, I had a pole in the corner of my backyard.

With increase in the number of houses around it has become necessary for them to install a new transformer.

It is not on my property but on the side of the road. It is closer to my neighbour's compound. You can see their house.

I hope the installation of the new transformer helps with the power outages if you have had issues with power.

Load shedding is a regular feature here but we have our home UPS that takes care of our needs when the power is off.
