Ergon Energy is finishing their major job in town to replace the old one-fase power supply by the three-fase one. One more week and every house in Mt.Perry is connected to the new system. Around 180 new power poles, hundreds of km new cable, and many new transformers are installed.
One of the final jobs........yes: 6 new poles into George Street, securing the electricity supply for our new home. The cables will be attached next week.
One little disaster happened though: the last pole was drilled right through the main water line, just in front of our block. That caused a nice fountain. But the lucky part of it: to repair the damage, the Council had to dig up the main water line and they put in the connection and watermeter for us straight away. No application and no fee for me !!
There are not many people who can say that Ergon Energy payed for their water connection.
