Maybe you don't want to, but there is definitely someone out there dealing with these issues.
E.g. during a heat-wave (100 F+) a transformer on top of the building (at a previous employer) started on fire. When the dust settled, we found out that the person in charge of it had not upgraded it as our power requirements increased. It was over-taxed and the heat-wave put it over the edge.
