Just before all the self isolation and not being closer than 6 foot to anyone else I had a chat with a couple of DNO engineers who were doing insulation tests on the HV cables going to/from a sustation at the end of the road the 11Kv cables are tested at 15 Kv to Earth not sure if they used AC or DC. Another thing was the that I never realised just how big the fuse holders for the outgoing LV cables are I asked what size the fuses were and they told me they were 400 amps. I was just being nosey but it's interesting to me to see just where my juice comes from which is a rather scruffy 500 KVA transformer
The syndrome is somewhat different in males and females and is rarely diagnosed in girls.
I wonder if autism in women is much harder to recognise perhaps because we are 'hard wired' to be more nurturing, compassionate, emphatic and more in tune with emotions? So because we instinctively display all of those traits, it's more difficult to diagnose?
Aspergirls is an interesting read. The manifestation in girls is somewhat different and they are generally better at concealing their problems but will then suffer more meldowns when things become too much. Temple Grandin is an interesting example of a more extreme Autistic women.
It seems to me that all this discussion about possible autistic spectrum disorders, and generalising from specific individuals would be frowned upon if we were talking about wiring matters. Fault-finding should be left to competent persons whatever the field of enquiry. ?
