6:06 the glass devices you refer to as “generators” are called mercury arc rectifiers when they operate the give off a bright purple glow and they are used for converting AC into DC at high current. Used in motor control or power control systems.

I think the cabinet that you didn’t recognize is a Mercury Arc Rectifier that is basically a AC converter. “A mercury-arc valve or mercury-vapor rectifier or mercury-arc rectifier is a type of electrical rectifier used for converting high-voltage or high-current alternating current into direct current. “

[@renderedpixels4300]

@Milan Velky Not even, a iphone charger is *far* more advanced, and has way more circuits than just converting ac to dc. Hell, what the MAR does then, a couple diodes could do now, its just converting ac directly to dc. Problem with rectifiers is while their simple, they add a *lot* of waves and such into the dc, so you need more stuff to smooth it out. Photonicinduction has a video on these MARs in action, theyre super cool

[@seinfan9]

The power still being on can be for a few reasons: The place may have backup generators and a huge propane reservoir that has yet to be tapped out. It's only been 6 months at the most from that electric bill you mentioned and there is very little electrical activity here. One possibility is that it may be attached to a specific portion of the grid that it can't be shut off remotely unless somebody comes in to do so manually. The electric company could be letting this place sit on ice until someone scoops it up. They have tons of customers. If suddenly a super user is no longer giving a discernable blip on power usage, their system may be set up that it ignores billing below a certain threshold of usage.

[@herrhaber9076]

There's electricity under several of the 7 Sisters in Moscow. We didnt stay to ask the security guard at the effing second level under MSU but in another one it seems there was a restaurant after a flight of stairs. We were litterally walking on gas masks, filters, old papers in the light of an incandescent bulb. It was weird.

[@rfitzgerald2004]

I used to work in an ex-military building, a place that used to be an air control transmitter station and it was connected to a separate military-operated power grid. Whenever the power company would post letters to inform them of maintenance or other disconnection, it would never go off when the neighbours places always would. On the plus side, they were never billed for their usage either, which worked out quite well for an IT company with hundreds of computers!

You see things like this and it makes you wonder (and really know) what else is out there. I live VERY close to a century old airbase in the midwest and everyone thinks a lot of crazy things flown in during the night and there ARE interesting flights at night but I've always been curious about the rail line that runs directly into the base. Most of the people that live here are affiliated one way or another. Both of my grandfather's were stationed here. One a master sergeant the other a Lieutenant Colonel who was also a young B-29 bomber pilot during the Tokyo fire raids. My mom was civilian personal working for the airforce for 29 years. I've heard all kinds of stories. The base here began in 1917 and is named after an enlisted person. If anyone knows where this is and has any interesting stories I'd love to hear it.

When I was younger I go and explore stuff like this. Never had any of this stuff more like old buildings. The guy under me talked about old welders and trust. My father was an old welder and built Subs for Electric boat. So those old welders know their stuff and learn many things on what not to do. My father always signed his work with his badge number. This way no one can say it was his work that screwed up. I got a chance to visit the place when I was younger and boy was it a huge friggen base. Talk about being amazed.

9:22 I once explored an abandoned factory in France. One room was full of still working high voltage computers/machines, wasting power for at least ten years. The room felt fucking dangerous, so went out quickly, but I’m to this day curious how much money these ruïns have wasted.

In UK you don’t legally have to pay an electricity bill, as its illegal to switch off your electricity on humanitarian grounds. The way the service provider gets around this, is by depriving you of their metering service, which in turn, switches off your supply. If you instruct your service provider to remove their meter from your property, and install your own privately, you will not pay another electricity bill, but have service as normal. Not a lot of people know that, for good reason!

[@MonkeyWithAWrench]

those "generators" are actually mercury arc rectifiers. way cooler and look insane when running

I have no idea what or who I just stumbled on, but that was way cooler than the subway tunnels I used to "investigate" growing up back in Brooklyn!

[@wesleysmith5275]

What they kept calling generators is actually a transformer and arc rectifier both of which are ancient by today's standards. I'd love to bring my meters and tools down there and see what I could figure out about these old systems maybe even liven something up to see what still works, really cool stuff.

[@wewillrockyou1986]

The glass thing at 4:07 is a mercury arc rectifier, it's the old school way of turning AC (mains) electricity into DC (battery-like) electricity. You can find some pretty neat videos of them running on youtube, normally they glow when they are on. I do wonder if any of those can be fixed because while they are fragile they don't usually break easily unless they corrode where the electrical connections are made. You do have to be careful with leaks around those things though, there's of order a litre of mercury that sits at the bottom of it when it's off.
