Working on computer this evening at 8PM, a big explosion, and lights out. All the neighbors gather outside looking at the transformer.
A squirrel got on top of it and boom that was it for him.
Had a nice chat with the neighbors and the power was back on in 1 hour. It was a nice summer evening.
This is my second squirrel related outage this week. Per the lineman, they get about 10-12 squirrel caused outages a week.
How common is this else where? Are there any other animals that cause outages?
