FirstEnergy Pennsylvania crews recently installed new underground lines that connect to the Bradford West Substation. These new lines can carry more power, which helps make the system stronger and more reliable. They also give grid operators more flexibility to switch customers to a different line if there’s ever an issue with the one that normally serves their home or business.
