The power still being on can be for a few reasons: The place may have backup generators and a huge propane reservoir that has yet to be tapped out. It's only been 6 months at the most from that electric bill you mentioned and there is very little electrical activity here. One possibility is that it may be attached to a specific portion of the grid that it can't be shut off remotely unless somebody comes in to do so manually. The electric company could be letting this place sit on ice until someone scoops it up. They have tons of customers. If suddenly a super user is no longer giving a discernable blip on power usage, their system may be set up that it ignores billing below a certain threshold of usage.

I used to work in an ex-military building, a place that used to be an air control transmitter station and it was connected to a separate military-operated power grid.

On the plus side, they were never billed for their usage either, which worked out quite well for an IT company with hundreds of computers!

Most of the people that live here are affiliated one way or another. Both of my grandfather's were stationed here. One a master sergeant the other a Lieutenant Colonel who was also a young B-29 bomber pilot during the Tokyo fire raids. My mom was civilian personal working for the airforce for 29 years. I've heard all kinds of stories. The base here began in 1917 and is named after an enlisted person. If anyone knows where this is and has any interesting stories I'd love to hear it.

The glass thing at 4:07 is a mercury arc rectifier, it's the old school way of turning AC (mains) electricity into DC (battery-like) electricity. You can find some pretty neat videos of them running on youtube, normally they glow when they are on. I do wonder if any of those can be fixed because while they are fragile they don't usually break easily unless they corrode where the electrical connections are made. You do have to be careful with leaks around those things though, there's of order a litre of mercury that sits at the bottom of it when it's off.

Thank you for the upload!

They actually cut your off at some point but I guess this being a bunker it probably has special status. If it's owned by the community/city/state power will probably run forever.

tell em when you're moving out and they will either bill the landlord, the new tennant, eat the cost or disconnect the supply as is their want. if you don't tell em, they may cut the supply or carry on supplying and charging you as per your agreement. might be a bit scummy if they charged you if you were in a coma or something but otherwise it's on you to be a man and honour your debts.

My father was an old welder and built Subs for Electric boat. So those old welders know their stuff and learn many things on what not to do. My father always signed his work with his badge number. This way no one can say it was his work that screwed up. I got a chance to visit the place when I was younger and boy was it a huge friggen base. Talk about being amazed.

In UK you don’t legally have to pay an electricity bill, as its illegal to switch off your electricity on humanitarian grounds. The way the service provider gets around this, is by depriving you of their metering service, which in turn, switches off your supply. If you instruct your service provider to remove their meter from your property, and install your own privately, you will not pay another electricity bill, but have service as normal. Not a lot of people know that, for good reason!
