A SUBSTANTIAL £700k power upgrade has improved the strength and efficiency of supplies to several villages across north Dorset. Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) undertook the works to improve the local electricity network infrastructure around the area of Shroton (Iwerne Courtney), with villages including Child Okeford, Okeford Fitzpaine, Shillingstone and Sturminster Newton benefitting from the £711,000 investment. Running from April to the end of June, the works saw a major upgrade to the area’s overhead power lines and associated equipment. A total of 170 poles were replaced, along with associated equipment on the overhead network including transformers, low voltage conductors and circuit breakers, to build resilience into the network.
