Let me untangle this for you. The can on the left is 7200V to 240V... the can on the right is 2700V to 240V, and the regulator runs off 2700V. They step 7200V down to 240, run it through a photocell, contactor and fuse setup; then into the secondary to produce 2700V to run the Regulator. It works great, they eliminate the need for oil switches... it's a win-win :)

I didn't realize it at the time, but this substation was about to be upgraded. Presumably it's not going to be quite as close to the condo building (which is only a couple years old) when it's rebuilt.

Tucannon between Fourth and Railroad. This is the pole that controls most of the street lights in the town. Current Bing Streetside shows they've added a new transformer to the back of this pole. View here: binged.it/1N5L3pj
