@VestigialLung The strand cables carrying telephone trunk lines & CATV hardlines are at ground potential and are very sturdy. A couple hundred kg in tension on them. I would faaaar prefer using a ladder to climbing the pole with gaffs, especially a rock-hard treated timber pole. Short of a cherry picker that's the safest way to get up there. </ex CATV installer> @azonenberg @Dtl |
@VestigialLung @Dtl Yep.
Climbing that ladder is quite likely to be harmful or fatal, but due to injuries from a fall rather than the shock hazard. If they're lucky it will break (or wiggle out of the way) before they get high enough to do serious damage.
