Default Power Outage - Brownwood

Does anyone know what caused the power outage last night at Brownwood all the way up Buena Vista to 466A? This is the 2nd time in a month that has happened and it lasted over 20 minutes.

Thanks.

I know that when you live in brand new areas, that power outages happen sometimes and I suspect that is because areas around yours are being developed and attached to the grid and for a short time they must detach some things.

That is my theory. It happened when Hadley was new and it happened last year when this village was new.

I remember one of the folks living closeby saying. "This is unacceptable."

It didn't bother me much at all.

SECO said this kind of feeder fault usually means there's a chance to eat fried squirrel if you can find it. ok, I admit I embellished but they said it usually is an animal...
