One of our residents recently lodged a complaint with Consumers Energy with regards to the loss of power 3 times in the last 2.5 months. They asked for root cause analysis and also recommended that if they did not have good plans to alleviate the problem.  Some of our residents are fed from Jenison and some are fed power from Hudsonville.  A better plan would be to tie all the sub from the main coming out of Hudsonville which has not lost power over the same time frame.

He was just contacted by the Consumers Field engineer today. They are going to take the suggestion and move the Northwest portion of the subdivision onto the same grid as the rest of the subdivision. Currently this section is at the end of the Jenison Main and is overburdened.

This change is tentatively scheduled to occur 12-19-2013. It will be a HOT changeover, so we should not loose power during this change.

Hopefully this will rectify the power outage issues we have been facing.

here is the contact info for future reference.
