Path 62
Path 62 or the Eldorado - McCullough 500 kV Line is a short 500 kV power line linking Los Angeles Department of Water and Power's McCullough substation to Southern California Edison's Eldorado substation in the Eldorado - Marketplace - McCullough substation complex. Path 62 is part of The Western Electricity Coordinating Council's links of electrical intertie paths in the western United States. Like Path 61, this short, yet important 500 kV line allows for power flow to be rerouted on different 500 kV lines that make up the massive Path 46 transmission system when necessary. Power generated from Hoover Dam, and fossil fuel power plants in the Four Corners region is routed to this substation complex via many other 500 kV lines that connect to this substation complex.The 500 kV line can transmit 2,598 MVA of electrical power in either direction.
