Ahhhhhh gotta love that open wire.......

@bansheemike It's standard practice in California to wire transformers phase-to-phase on the primary side rather than phase-to-neutral as in most of the country. This requires a fuse for each hot wire. I'm not sure why this is done, but I suspect it has something to do with concerns over grounding integrity.

@animallover017 Sure enough, I didn't notice that until you pointed it out. Thanks.

@Sidewinder9877 just looks like the open wire bus was slapping together.. so just 120-240 volts

Crane + Power Line = Badby Katsumbhong203,937 views
As the video title shows, this is Burlingame CA which is about 15 miles south of San Francisco close to the bay. This was somewhat of a freak storm, but these can occur during the rainy winter season.

Sooo... you are filming a powerline the whole day till something like that happens... yeah that makes sense...

@syikie That is inaccurate. As I stated in the original post, I had taken some still shots (actually from inside the house through a window), and then I heard noises again. So I put the camera, a Canon PowerShot, into movie mode and stood on my porch, peeking around the corner and caught the fireworks. I was not "filming the powerline the whole day" as you suggest. This is a 21-sec clip that was not edited.
