Yesterday one of our younger linemen had problems on a small radial section on our rural area.
The initial call they found a blown fuse on the tap and a blown arrester on an irrigation bank approximately a mile and a half away. They replace the arrester and refused.
When they closed the fuse it blew and took out another arrester about a quarter mile closer on another irrigation bank.
Again they changed the arrester, refused and the fuse blew along with another arrester about another half mile closer.
They repeated the same process but this time the fuse held.
All the arresters were 9 kv ohio brass polys. The whole radial line is 3 miles long.
Any ideas? I haven't had this happen before. Thanks
