Geocache Description:

This is the fifth of a series of caches hidden CLOSE to electrical distribution substations. They are accessible from residential footpaths and roadside parking is available.

The given coordinates will take you to a position from where you will be able to obtain the substation plant and equipment number (SPENS No) which is engraved on the gate label.
You will need this six digit number in order to work out the cache coordinates.

Cache co-ords:- N 50 49.X E 000 14.Y
Where X is the power in watts of circuit #1 given that the current flowing in the circuit is 0.5 amps and the resistance of the circuit is:-
[(2nd digit + 3rd digit + 4th digit +5th digit)x 1st digit x 3rd digit x 5th digit]+ 5th digit ohms.

and Y is the power in watts of circuit #2 given that the current flowing in the circuit is 2amps and the applied voltage is:-
(2nd digit x 4th digit x 5th digit) - 2nd digit volts.

The cache container is made out of re-cycled bottle tops and is about the same size as a film pot. It contains a log sheet and pencil.
