Line goes up

Today, the Project Indiana team began pulling and putting up line. Starting from the pole at the Church in the center of the San Jacinto project, two crews worked in opposite directions, pulling six spans each, 13 total, and installing primary line.

They also installed three transformers with ropes and pulleys by tying the end to the front of a pickup truck and then backing it up to hoist the transformer.

The team completed the inside wiring on six homes.

It was partly cloudy and in the 80s with high humidity and brief rain showers peppering the day.

This area is on Mountain Time, or two hours behind most of Indiana. This leaves the project team anxious to get to the project site while the sun is up but the temperatures are lower. The plan for Wednesday is to start around 6:30 a.m.
