You see stuff like that all over developing countries. There were live high voltage lines on the ground in LaPaz a few years ago. A lot of that stuff is repaired by the locals, not the utility companies.

Wow, what a mess! and that was probably done by a JOURNEYMAN electrtian!!!!

I have seen RATS nests that were MORE organized!

Did you find that one in ottawa

I've taken down trees next to poles that looked like that and the trees had just about as many wires running through them!

I would hate to be the guy who has to fix that in the future.

Re: Here\'s a scary shot

I don't know what you guys are talking about, that pole still has room for more.

Re: Here\'s a scary shot

Quite often the only thing holding the pole up is all the wires.

Re: Here\'s a scary shot

we did an antique pear removal this week that had a very live service wire running through it that was so worn it had the ground dangling in two pieces. the other two wires had much of the insulation gone from rubbing. ...it was raining. the power company stoped in because the tree owner called them (fine with me). He said he wouldn't work on it in the rain and left. the tree is now a pile of rubble in my truck (confidant me is fine and untingled) and the wire is hanging a bit lower now that the tree isn't holding it up anymore. It's hanging (resting) on an all metal building.
I told the owner not to touch his shed until it either quits rainning or the power company comes back (same difference). I know what you are thinking; I might be sued.
and your right but maybe I won't be either.

I think that picture is from Bell India, the sister company of Bell Canada. The guy who hooked that mess up is the same one who calls me every other night wanting to change my service.

That's too neat for Bell Canada, that's what they call GOLD PLATING

, but that is the country where they send their customers for help when the phone isn't working .

You realize, Kevin, that yor view when you posted was #666. Obviously that's changed now... I had to laugh with the reaper and all!
