We take a peek behind the veil of the Carey High Voltage Lab at BPA's Ross Complex in Vancouver. This is where engineers actually create lightning to test the safety and reliability of high-voltage electrical equipment. Electrical engineers Jeff Hildreth and Kellie Robinson talk about the different types of testing they use to ensure equipment is ready for BPA's high-voltage transmission system.
