Rebuilding the pole.

Rebuilding the pole.
After the total rebuild of the pole top by cutting off the burnt out section its rebuilt.


One of the few downsides to WA is the lack of rain and excess of dust. when we get very light showers (scotch mist) this only causes more problems of the water drops shorting out cause of the dust on the insulators. You only have to look at the roof of my garaged car to see the problem.

The damage from pole fire.

Checking to see if the core of the pole is still sound.

Removing the wires and the cross piece.

Cutting the damaged part off.

Then work backwards to make it all safe

the footnote to this story it took 6 months and we now have underground power no more over head lines.
