In this podcast Barry Middleton, in conversation with Lisa Rickert, recalls his job as an electrician on the Mine. He started as a relief foreman and his first challenge was to work out the phasing on the shovels. He worked in air conditioning, truck shop and eventually ended up as permanent electrical foreman, then as a mechanical foreman. He then moved on to become electrical inspector in town, which also included being part of the Pilbara electrical safety group.
