Bob,

Any chance of getting some good pic's ?

No comment.

I haven't found the address yet but there are only a few streets with that size transmission lines near them.

I will see what I can do.

Wait a minute...

Are you just trying to get me dangerously close to the power lines?

Our GC is now building his new home right next to high tension grid lines, and to make matters worse, he is putting in pool, and even worse yet, he is near the substation, that Mike Holt sent the link out. about stray current.

Here are some updates on the herbertsville sub station problem http://www.google.com/search?q=herbertsville+sub+station&hl=en&lr=&start=0&sa=N

Just before this post came up, i was making a copy of the stray report to send to him.

In the background of the video, there is what appears to be a dark red neighboring house. I wonder what the distance difference, from the wires, the two houses are and if the other house has any issues?

I found a pic of the guy holding a fluorescent bulb.

Les:
That JCP&L thing dates from late 2003. This summer there was talk about stray voltage again, here in Brick. What I remember from then was something about 'single wire, earth return' in the distribution system. The BPU was on their case to correct it. Linemen that I talk to said something to the effect of 'lacking an upgraded system'.

See ya.

Look at the pic ... then check the video. That wire going between the columns wasn't there before.

Call animal control ... I smell a rat!

reno, i think that is a rope.
