Employees of the Madison electric utility are installing a new power line into the church. Starting from the pole, a new 12,500 volt line will go down the pole and then run underground to the new transformer in front of the church. There it will be stepped down to 240 volts going underground into one of the former nap rooms to a new distribution panel. Extensive wiring changes are being made inside the building to move the power entrance from its present place under the narthex to the new center in the nap room. In the photograph, the power lines that will feed the church are visible -- not yet connected -- near the top of the pole shown at center. The new transformer is on the ground, just to the left of the "Route 124" sign. The present transformers, which will be eliminated, are the three garbage-can-size cylinders on the top of the pole to the right.
