Prolonged heat waves such as the one bearing down on the Northwest this week threaten to blow transformers, strain power lines and break down other equipment over time. During a 10-day heat wave across California in 2006, utilities lost more than 1,500 transformers, each knocking out one neighborhood in the process. There were signs of other systems under strain, too: Portland’s streetcar system was suspended.
