Fun fact: You can estimate the voltage by the length of the insulators. My guess is this is around 100kV (2x 3 phase circuits), around the border of transmission and distribution voltages.
You can also estimate the capacity by the number of conductors per phase. This has a pair of lines for each phase, so a fair chunk, but not the 3 or 4 conductors you sometimes see (although maybe you mainly see that on higher transmission voltages.
Ooh a lightning sorcerer…
There are some who call him: Tim?
It will be 128 kV or 345 kV.
Seems like something we should construct more of
I have a similar photo.
i work for a utility company, we got even simpler ones on the wall 😄
That’s some hot centerfolds
The ThePyroPython Pylon
I like pictures like this, shows that the person who took it is somewhat creative and thinks out of the box.
thinks out of the box.
or inside the pylon
Lmao yes indeed
I like when something usually considered just background becomes interesting.
I like geometric patterns :)
Are we sharing pylons?
Straight out of Dr. Strange
You are now trapped by my stand『SUPER FLY』
Did you get a buzzing sensation being under it?
Looks like part of a space station orbiting a water planet
Damn, now I can’t unsee it!
Looking up an electricity pylon’s skirt.
- escape route?
- thermal starter?
- timer?
- thermite?
- battery?
…good luck!
do we need more of them?
Love this perspective shot.
