Approved - subject to query about location of plaque -- Ebruton (talk) 09:14, 7 February 2016 (CST)

The location of the plaque is described thus: "The HVDC link has been upgraded several times and the plaque will be mounted in connection with the existing converter station. "

Is the existing converter station the same location as the original converter station from 1954 and if so is this the original building despite the upgrade of the HVDC link? If this is a different location, can further details be provided, such as a) why this is a suitable location; and b) whether there might be alternative locations more closely connected with the 1954 HVDC link?

I would also be interested to know if any original apparatus and materials survived from the 1954 HVDC link and whether this has been preserved and possibly displayed, most probably in a local museum, and/or whether this might be possible? Might it be possible to further develop this connection if/when the plaque is mounted.
