Who knows what the wire is? Serice wire in tri-plex? Old single conductor wire prior to the use of tri-plex? Or is this primary wiring 7200 volts? we need picture of truck and wire as it was beore he moved it. Yes I have seen primary wire both hot and ground less 15 feet and more than 12 feet this is also in a woods with trees not to far from it.
Here in Tucson a guy was hopitalized on Saturday with critical injuries after he tried to move a downed power line wearing a pair of leather gloves. Apparently the power line was laying against a tree causing it to burn the tree and he was attempting to stop the fire. The newspaper said the line carried 2400 volts.
Edited to ask, "Why DO you have a fire truck parked in your yard?"
