Workmen Repairing Power Lines - Mangahao Electric Power Scheme
- Description
It would appear the power line has broken and the workmen have spliced it together and are using poles with hooks to lift the power line back into position. The Mangahao Power Station provides hydroelectric power and is situated near the town of Shannon. It serves Wellington, Horowhenua, Taranaki, Hawkes Bay, and the Wairarapa. After being delayed by WWI, construction began in late 1919 and the station opened in November 1924.
