      J&P Richardson Industries - Personal Achivements - • Was driven down to Beaudesert Gluten factory without being told anything. Once on site there was a large number of Energex and J&P Richardson crews working all over the accompanying HV lines and was told that the site had no power and asked to take a look at the substation. With no drawing and no further information diagnosed the problem successfully from personal knowledge and had a solution within 15 minutes. Joe Richardson, the Owner of J&P, was euphoric with the outcome.
