transformer installation in cold city

back again with me about the installation and checking methods of electric current.

right on monday my team was assigned to inspect several transformers in takengon city (cold city).

here my team not only checks the transformer but also replaces some old transformers with new ones, because transformers in this city have not been replaced for almost 3 years, only routine inspections every two months.

this is a photo of me and my team dismantling an old transformer, before we disassembled the transformer, we had to disassemble some cables and small items in it, which is a barrier for us here, namely the heavy traffic flow, very difficult for us to work freely because the crane truck, which we brought was quite large and took up road space, what's more, we were not escorted by the party concerned.

and when we disassemble the cables, which are large and long, it is very risky for road users around, afraid that there are road users who do not see the cable on the roadside and it is very likely that motorcycle users will get entangled in the cable.

This matter is very difficult for us to overcome if we lack one of the workers who are in charge of regulating road users around, usually this task is carried out by the field head because this task is not too tired.

after we worked for about 4 hours more and we decided to take a break and have lunch because there is still one more task that has not been completed, namely the installation of a new transformer that was dismantled the day before,

at break time we don't just eat, but also discuss about our future work and correct small problems that occur in the field.

After resting for about an hour, you immediately rush to the next point, which is to take a new transformer at our office or post, which has previously provided the transformers and materials we need.

this is our last task in this very tiring day.
namely the installation of a new transformer in a densely populated area, fortunately in our task, the traffic flow is not heavy, there are only a few vehicles that pass because this is not a connecting road between cities,

this installation took 4 hours, quite a long time because there were some items that were not sufficient when we installed them, so we had to go back to the supply post to pick up the items we needed.

Luckily we didn't spend the night here, because the area here at night is very cold and not suitable for us to work in cold temperatures.
