A cat got into a substation that feeds parts of Uptown, Central City, Mid-City, and the CBD, and caused a flash when it came into contact with our equipment.
Crews are safely working to make equipment repairs and restore power to all as quickly as possible.

The only Sylvester chasing Tweety bird excuse?
What will it be next a Coyote and they’ll blame Wiley Coyote chasing the Road Runner? That will only be believable if it’s an Acme Power Station.

It’s not the first time it’s happened.
Many years ago, during my days working at River Bend Nuclear Station, a cat managed to get under the fence and crawl up on one of the main step up transformers. It got across a phase and ground...230KV. It immediately shut down the entire facility....960MW went off the grid right during the morning inrush. The cat was completely vaporized. How’d they know it was a cat? Security cameras caught it, but no one could get there fast enough to take action before it did it’s dastardly deed. Fencing was upgraded to address both 4-legged as well as 2-legged “animal control”. Security procedures were also upgraded.

When a cat or squirrel shorts the high voltage power line prior to the transformer it goes bang with an explosion and it stinks of burnt hair in the area for a time after.
