HEY GUYS,
SORRY ITS BEEN A FEW DAYS SINCE I WROTE, I'VE BEEN UP AT SCHOOL FOR THE PAST WEEK AND HAVE 4MORE WONDERFUL DAYS UP HERE IN GOOD OLE DECATUR ILLINOIS AT THE TRAINING SITE. LAST WEEK WE DID SOME DISTRIBUTION HOT STICK'N. WHAT I MEAN IS WE UNTIED AND PUT NEW CROSSARMS UP WITH OUT EVER TOUCHING THE WIRES/PHASES. AT THE COMPANY I WORK FOR WE CAN RUBBER GLOVE OFF THE POLE 4KV, BUT NO VOLTAGES ABOVE THAT AKA....12KV, 34.5KV AND SO ON. SO LEARNING THIS PART OF THE TRADE IS GOING TO BE VERY USEFULL SOME DAY WHEN WERE WORKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WOODS ON A 12 KV 3 PHASE POLE THAT NEEDS AN ARM CHANGED OUT AND WE CAN'T GET A BUCKET TO. I KEEP SAYING THAT I'LL POST SOME PICTURES BUT THE WEATHER HASN'T BEEN THE BEST AND I CAN'T GET AWAY TO SNAP A FEW PICS AS EASY AS I CAN A WORK. BUT NEVER THE LESS, I WILL CONTINUE TO TRY.
WELL, TOMORROW WE HEAD TO THE TRANSMISSION YARD TO DO SOME HEAVIER LIFTING WITH THE HOT STICKS AND CHANGING OUT SOME BROKEN BELLS WITH HOISTS AND BLOCKS, AND AGAIN~WE WON'T EVER TOUCH THE WIRE WITH OUR HANDS.
ANYWHO,
GOTTS TO GET BACK TO THE GROUP.
HOPE ALLS WELL~
HURTMAN DAN
