http://www.gridnewzealand.co.nz/n45.html indicates the max capacity of the link is '1040 MW and it operates at voltages of 270 kV and 350 kV', not 1200 MW @ 400Kv. It would seem that the link could have a higher capacity at the higher voltages, but possibly the current poles aren't configured to produce voltages at that level. There's quite a bit of history about the cable here http://www.techhistory.co.nz/Electricity/Cookstcable.htm. Brianegge ( talk) 21:48, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Coordinates of cable terminals on South Island should be added.
I have removed the following content from the background that appeared slightly off topic, and made the background too long.

I have removed the following content that appears slightly off-topic and is already well covered in New Zealand electricity market
The HVDC outage planning process and the effect of unplanned outages is already mentioned in the section on Transmission Outages and Faults (although I will try to improve this).

The reference source "White Diamonds" quotes the value of the original contract with ASEA for the converter stations as 6.5 million pounds. It gives an equivalence of $13 million, but this seems of little use for the reader. It would be much more interesting to see this expressed in dollars of today. By referring to the site: http://www.rbnz.govt.nz/statistics/0135595.html we can calculate that for a contract value of one pound established in Q3 of 1961, the escalated value in today's dollars (based on CPI changes) is $41.02. This makes the contract value around $266 million. However, this does not take into account movement of the New Zealand currency against the Swedish kronor over that time. Is this worth taking any further ? Marshelec ( talk) 06:24, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
