Another example of old-style LILCO construction. The once prevalent 23kv lines went in, 4kv came out from the single phase transformers at right, while the 13kv came out of the 3-ph ones at left. Notice the cluttered style on this sub. Photographed 1961. Taken down & replaced in 1965 by a 69kv to 13kv sub one mile west. 4kv is all gone by now.
