Co-op Conversations with DEMCO··27 May 2026·15 min

About this episode

In this episode of Co-op Conversations with DEMCO, we’re joined by linemen Michael Welborn and serviceman Ashton to explain how capacitor banks help keep your power steady and reliable, what our crews look for during systemwide inspections, and how devices like reclosers work to protect the grid. You’ll also learn how to tell the difference between an issue inside your home and something on our system—and we break down what’s normal, what’s not, and when to give us a call.
