Manage episode 457659890 series 2882353
The Electricity Authority's report in to a toppled pylon has found the collapse was entirely avoidable.
The Transpower pylon north of Helensville fell - cutting power to 88,000 people in Northland - after unsupervised, inexperienced maintenance crews undid three legs at once.
The report found there was evidence removing all the nuts wasn't a one-off event.
ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper says this incident came with significant economic impacts to Northland.
