The tornado's certainly caused damage to a main line. I am at a juction, high tension and the main suppy was out for almost three day's.
I agree in full as to chirimoya's explanation. It is complex. The only way to get around it and have a consistant power supply is to get OFF the grid. Easier spoken than done. Many people live in rural areas and this is a problem. For us in the woods, it is a neccessity to be in control of our own energy. A simple inverter won't cut it. The supply of available power is inadaquate to the demand. Batteries never get a full charge.
Just thankful for the rain here, need something to keep grateful of living in the DR.
