A couple people have mentioned that in both threads, but I would think that would result in power outages that we'd also hear about.

depends what's connected and how fast they got it up. I heard the boom, it was pretty late, the people connected might have been sleeping.

Any other explosion would make news, transformers blowing up don't.

I have never lived in a place where so many transformers have blown up as an aside. I wonder if dominion bought a bunch at Big johns used car and transformer dealership.
