Power Issues

I went over to our little datacenter about 6:30pm Sunday evening to check the A/C unit, whose breaker got kicked again. Arrived to find the generator running, still. Appears the regular utility Power was not feeding our building, and the gauge on the Propane tank read at about 10%. It had been this way since Friday evening. OUCH

So, I got ahold of the national Amerigas folks and they dispatched the guy at $90/hr to fill us up. The guy actually wondered if I wanted to wait until tomorrow morning. Umm..no. He ended up being a customer of ours and said he was able to get on all weekend.. Despite our power being out :)



I also got the Power company on-call guys to come and replace the fuse that got shot on the transformer. Now I know what to look for when the transformer fuse goes out.



So now we’re back up on regular Power and the propane tank is full at 100%. We probably had about 4-5 hours left on the tank.. Maybe more, who knows.



It must have been a site for those on-call guys to see me in my Sunday best, worrying about power/propane.
