Narrative

Lost 2300volt and 480volt power to the Galena hoist due to blown fuses. It was determined that the fuse holder was defective so it was replaced. Our primary hoist is the #3 which was not affected so hoisting of the underground crews took place on schedule. This problem also affected power in the office and dry area. Hoist was back on line at 3:50 pm.
