High Voltage

This is part of the 69kV equipment at a electric power distribution substation. Directly below this gridwork is a 69kV circuit breaker, to the left is a 69/13kV transformer. I live for this stuff… By the way, kV is kilo-volts, as in 69,000 volts. Don't Touch!

Thanks for the warning. Don't think I will touch. Interesting perspective of power.

Let 'em fry. I hate squirrels.
