not really DIY, but we had a power cut earlier, during a particularly ferocious thunderstorm. Perhaps someone could tell me why it took the DNO only 20 seconds to restore power. I wouldn't mind, but after the power came back on, the thunder then got 10 times worse, for about half an hour, with no more disturbances! What caused / restored this power cut? I believe the power was cut on all 3 phases in our locality for the 20 secs, the local shop's power went out too.
One of my mates was inside a lift in the frenchgate centre in doncaster, when the power was cut to the WHOLE CENTRE! Somehow they freed him. But my mum was in debenhams and the EM lights werent working so they made them stay in the cafe where theres windows until the decision was taken to escort the crowd out thru the fire escapes.
