This is 13,800 volts. It is easily reachable from the roof top.

I would be worried about the roofers when they put their metal safety barricades around the edge of the roof.

I can picture one of the barricades falling onto the secondary and giving a nice big spark as it shorts.

Wouldn't the primary make a bigger spark? [Linked Image]

What on earth? [Linked Image]

Are we actually seeing two separate buildings here with only a few inches between them, or is this one structure which has been built around the pole?

Edit: Nevermind, I've just realized what I'm looking at. At first glance I thought the paved area on the ground was actually part of another flat roof. [Linked Image]

Hope the HVAC guy servicing that CDU(ConDensing Unit)doesn't run a piece of copper tubing into that or *KABOOM*. :Rolleyes: [Linked Image]

Wondering if those black marks on the roof are the remains of the last guy who got too close... [Linked Image]

I see a guy wire attached to the pole. Where is the other end attached? To the building [Linked Image], maybe, if the separation is so minimal?
