Default A light shines where there was none

Wrong equipment caused blackout

Seems to have changed now, but earlier versions of that piece had a
picture of the burnt out wreck of what looked like a very large
transformer with a couple of dodgy-looking air-con cooling units bolted
on to it.

Was that in any way connected with the fault, or just a random pic of
wrecked HV gear?
