The Rural Voice, 1987-11, Page 7WE DELIVER As long as the electricity is there when you need it, who cares that hydro's journeymen linesmen were required to have 4 years of classroom and on-the-job training? Who cares that the major lines that serve Midwestern Ontario are ACSR exceptionally sturdy, steel reinforced conductor, designed to better withstand storms and the weight of ice? And should an outage occur, who cares that circuit breakers have special automatic reclosures to quickly bring back the power? And that staff regularly inspect lines and equipment to ensure they are maintained in good working order? Who cares that a fleet of vehicles, from bucket and digger trucks to 3/4 ton pick- ups, is similarly maintained and operated with maximum efficiency in mind? Who cares that while the number of customers and the electricity supplied has more than doubled in the past 30 years, hydro staff has increased less than 20%? We care, because we're caring for you. Dependability is behind every- thing we do. WALKERTON Ontario Hydro 4Qt CLINTON OWEN SOUND 519-881-0770 519-482-3483 519-376-5990 NOVEMBER 1987 5
