This video neglected to cover the three-phase reclosers found on distribution poles. This is an omission that should not have been. The recloser is a fundamental safety feature for electric distribution. It also omits the secondary wire that takes the stepped down electricity to the end user (residential/business).

If you lads are still reading these here is 4 a big KUDOS from your Canadian Brothers. Play safe folks 👍🍻✌️

Much love to all the power plant employees out there

Thank you for your work and dedication. You are very much appreciated.

Hey if Susan is reading this answer the damn phone

Then why is my power company changing out the new meters saying they are not reading properly. This is happening all over my county.

Thit my grampa truck dodge is strong it would start

Worked the CJ Bryan back in 76 to 86. Great memories

Great Job!!!!

I do not know why this video exists

My first time gaffing a pole was not fun😂😂😂

I live 1 mile from this plant sad to see it go😢

Check for public intoxication

Wow, Louie sounded younger these days.

Ironic that I stumbled on this today, when our 2024 tax bills are distributed. Taxes back then averaged $600 a year!

Bruh got 120 v dc

That was back when you could run free as a kid . Everyone one was friendly mostly because they were from Kentucky and West Virginia. It sure has Changed.

Yeah wonder how many amps that is lol.

The thing that isn't taken into account with meter testing is the effects of line harmonics on the current sensors. Since modern homes in 2023 have switching power supplies and inverters driving many appliances, gadgets, etc they generate ALOT of dirty power. Even the meter itself does this as its often equipped with a switching supply itself. On a perfect wave form test bench the meter may behave withon tolerance but subject it to the noise of a typical neighborhood power grid and you get meter accuracy problems often resulting in gross overcharging of the customer. Unless you isolate tthe grid tie points with separate isolation transformers and employ in house isolation, filtering or swap out all switch mode supplies to linear this will be a huge problem.

Wind farms and weather modification creating droughts what could go wrong.

mercury lead aluminum just to name a few of the chemicals in that radiation powder

That's a nice shirt!

I love that! She said my kids think I’m super woman! Love it! I have 5 :)

Great educational video, glad this exists!

dangerous? yes, but i'd be lying if i said it wasn't cool to see

Best part of my apprenticeship were these sort of safety videos. When things go wrong with electricity, it is always spectacular to watch. Hella dangerous, but spectacular.

Bring back those housing prices!

That ain't Louie that's Arnold.

"Wind is the future of energy" Think again, nuclear is a better source of energy than anything we currently have. Enough politics

You're a fool.

I’ll rather keep and set my AC at the warmest temperature between 75-77 too reduce lots of the electricity especially if I am in my own house alone.

Bullshit, after monitoring the meter and then decreasing the load incrementally the meter didn't register a change at all. In fact the meter reading at the end of the month after decreasing the load by 1000w on a 24 hr basis the meter only showed a small difference, not any different than the monthly difference evidenced on my bill over time. What is more disturbing is that the meter wasn't consistent, it actually increased usage after it had registered a lowering from the decreased demand. This appears to be an averaging scam that allows the power company to charge whatever they feel is an average and further have the capability to disconnect customers from the grid remotely. Further I purchased components to establish off grid power and now am powering portions my usage on that system. It is discrete and has nothing to do with the grid at all. It will be interesting to see what the results of those decreases in usage are.

Innovation?? AEP, is a third-world company that provides a third-world service at an American premium. This company can’t even keep the power up and running during good weather. It’s despicable. Never in my life in America have I seen such rolling blackout Communist block bullshit.

How can I get into contact and talk to someone. I’m 19 I have my cdl and I’m eager to get into the trade.
