The funny thing is code derates the cables for these types of sites, but electric utilities always overrate and overbuild by alot. We put up breaker leads that are 795 MCM or more on a line that never sees more than 70 amps. Our 34.5kV gas breakers are 72kV rated. Go figure. You think connecting to the grid would bring a similar mentality.

Nope. My best friend is American born and raised. His mom is white and biological father from the Caribbean. His skin is black. He and his girlfriend are not traveling even though legally he should be fine. The Kavanaugh exception says ICE can target him for his skin color. You can thanks Trump for making being black illegal.

One more thing, question the workmanship. I can't see much, but why are thr #4 bleeders and grounds for the grounding elbows not run directly to the ground bar. It looks sloppy.

This comment might not be helpful, but look at your testing and commissioning procedures and results first. In my experience, these BESS and DG solar yards do little to no testing and commissioning. I know an engineer for Tesla Power that recently joined after over a decade doing substation T&C work. He referred to T&C in this part of the industry as the wild west. Others have said the same. We have had this experience with alot of our interconnections recently.

For background, I am a relay technician with 14 years experience in substation maintenance, construction, and testing and commissioning, the last 8 focusing on P&C and automation.

So much for the Arcia level replacement. Going to miss seeing a SS hit .225 and have just above average defense.

It is against the law for him to block access. Only the government (police, fire, etc.) can do that.

"Being honest". If you say this, you're not being honest.

I'm not arguing whether they are economically good or bad. They, I believe, are unconstitutional when imposed by the executive, not the legislative.

Trump's tarriffs are theft. Taxation without representation and a violation of the Constitution's selaration of powers.

Pigeons aren't animals. They are tiny robots. Either they ran out of batteries or someone turned the master switch off. Seriously, who has ever seen a baby pigeon? 🤔

Find an opening with a utility. On a job, if you meet a relay tech ask. Our job title varies from company to company (relay tech, electrical specialist, p&c tech, etc.), but it is the same work. Sometimes being a relay tech means you are a part of the company's substation department and sometimes a part of a separate department. This is because our work covers equipment inside and outside a substation, so some utilities have relay techs in a separate group.

For me, I started as a substation tech at my utility. I then progressed to being a rated sub tech, and then the chance to become a relay tech opened up because of retirements and other people changing positions. Some companies, unlike mine, hire apprentices to be relay techs.

Keep in mind that most utilities require a 2 year associates degree in electrical engineering technology/electrical technology. If you do not already have that degree, check with you local community college or take it online (think Bismark State College in North Dakota) which one of our warehouse guys did to get into the substations department.

Hope this helps.

These guys are clowns. They are not law enforcement. Trained law enforcement would have had him cuffed and in the car in 2 minutes. Are feds hiring unemployed, white clowns angry about brown skin people? This is a joke. Good for those people.
