Power Lines Upgrade
There's an area where they are upgrading the power lines there's the primary ones up high on the poles shown here (these are 115kv according to one of the guys on GOL).

Note the wheel-thingies used for feeding wire along the poles! Once the section of wire is complete those will be removed.
The insulators don't show real clearly, but you can atleast see just how far they come out from the pole.

You can also see a lower mounting arm for more wires...that's where the colored lines shown in the previous pic will go.

(and in the background is the original poles/lines that are being replaced)

Na he’s wrong there is no way that’s 115KV the insulators would be much much bigger and it would be too much of a danger to have that above a domestic voltage. Those insulators with one or 2 rings are gong to be between 10 and 18KV here we run at 11.

Kev that pole set up is very common here where i live but 138 KV above it with 14.4 KV below it. in this photo above is prolly around 7.2 KV as being most common distrubution voltages
