In message , Wanderer writes Finally! Confirmation that the two faults were indeed related. As some of us insisted (against solid opposition) from the start. Not quite true. You conveniently snipped the *real* reason, which was almost certainly human error. The *reason* for the second outage might have been human error [1], but the second outage was most definitely *caused* (ie triggered) by the first. It wasn't an "unrelated" incident. I'll concede that point, but the discussions that were going on at the time were much more of the nature that one 'bang' caused another 'bang' because the circuits were overloaded. It seems *that* wasn't the case. [1] Although you could argue that it was really caused by failure to implement a procedure that would have noticed and rectified that human error. Yes. Knowing the very strict and thorough commisioning and testing procedures that once were enforced, one is left wondering whether corners have been cut since privatisation. |
