Mean_R34 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Felt my office shake in Caulfield area. Was a 4.6 on the R scale. Epicentre was approx 5kms from the last one (in the Korrumburra vicinity). Apparently somewhere in Gippsland lost power as a result. The transformers on the power poles have a mercury relay, so alarms will be going of at power co's left, right & center. bwahaha Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261667-earthquake/page/2/#findComment-4484990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
