LAKE COLERIDGE GENERATORS
TWO OF NINE OUT OF ACTION
Two of the nine generators at the Lake Coleridge power station are oil’s of action. One is at the Papanui substation of the State Hydro-electric Department for rewinding and the other blew out early yesterday mornThe generator which out was almost due for a rewlrJC’t and it may be possible for it to be repaired temporarily and kept in service until it is rewound. Storage in the South Island is a matter for concern for the department, too. Yesterday, storage stood at 68,450,000 units, compared with 69.560,000 on the previous day. It is the first time in many years that the storage has been so poor at this time of the year.
