Missing information

In 1993 the mercury arc valves of one pole were replaced with thyristors, increasing the maximum power and voltage of the line to its current levels

Which are what, exactly?

Intermediate Switching Stations/PLC Repeater Stations

Does Nelson River Bipole has intermediate switching stations as Inga-Shaba? If yes, where? Are there PLC Repeater Stations? If yes, where?

Electrodes

Where are the electrodes situated? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.46.192.88 (talk) 11:28, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Word salad tandem

First instance:

The thyristor valves are as well as in Radisson converter station as in Dorsey converter station situated in the same halls, which where originally used for the mercury arc valves.

Second instance:

The converter halls of Bipole 2 have as well as in Henday converter station and as in Dorsey converter station a height of 24.38 metres (80 ft), a width of 15.24 metres (50 ft) and a length of 22.86 metres (75 ft).

Probably some kind of ESL error, perhaps from French. But I'll leave someone else to decide if the evident grammatical repair is a sufficient repair. — MaxEnt 21:28, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bipole project could make Manitoba ‘energy superpower’: Kinew – Winnipeg Free Press

WFP article is pay-walled unfortunately and I don't think this warrants any article updates yet. As in the heading, something to watch. 142.0.249.48 (talk) 11:46, 17 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
