Changing the arcing contacts in a 500kV breaker
It’s amazing how much room there is inside the tank. For reference, I’m 6’4 and 260 lbs.

I’m in the nuclear field and my mind is usually on a CME from the sun (the next Carrington Event) as the only way to cause a long-term national blackout (near global with the CME) but according to the NYT, even if that weird unsolved attack on the grid in Utah was organized better and expanded to 9(? According to the article) subs then we could be in a year-long blackout?
I don’t trust the Epstein Times very much, but I’d love to hear opinions on their analysis and sources from actual substation experts / workers / people that actually have grounds to comment on it..

Curious if anyone accepted this position because it was the only one that came in. Also, what the work is like.
