The Central Sierra Historical Museum has completed a project that was years in the making. 

The Redinger Exhibit is a fully operational hydroelectric plant that was donated to the museum. 

Museum volunteer Doug Koerper said, "This was built in 1904. It was a few years after the first power plants, multiphase generators, in the United States. This is probably the only power plant in the world that is at a museum, historical unit that operates."

Volunteers donated countless hours to the completion of the project. 

The plant was just dedicated and is now open for tours and demonstrations to the public.
