7 0r 8 years ago it was sleeting and lightning struck my transformer, I was the only one served by it. I called the power company. It wasn't more than 15 or 20 minutes until a guy from the power company pulled up, claimed the pole and re-fused it, it immediately blew again. He came down walked up to the house and said the transformer is blown, I am going to the warehouse in the next town about 12 mi away, if there is no transformer of the right size, I will have to drive 60 miles to get one. He was back in a half hour with a transformer. He changed it out by himself with the sleet peppering down all the time. I wasn't out of service more than 2 hours. I worked as a power lineman for 4 years and changed out a lot of transformers with help. That was no small feat. Of course he had better equipment than I did 60 years ago.
