  • if you touch the wire will you die. and how much does an elcttrical ceramic 10kv insulator cost to buy. again is this demonstration mobile or not.

  • @muscle423 Yes, it's highly likely that you would die. I don't know about the cost of the equipment. This demonstration is not mobile; it's located at a training facility.

  • @cruo volts dont kill amps do u get struck with 1,000000 volts and still live if there are no amps

  • @justinfrnfr Where did I say volts kill?

  • whero iso theo electrikcity coming fromo

  • @muscle423 It's being provided from a generator and back-fed through the transformer.

  • thanks lineman rick

  • todd. how much experience in the field do you have? sleeves are for contact protection not flash protection. shields are more cumbersome than protective in some cases. great video, at least it's not an accident victim telling me how to be safe. these are professional lineman doing a very safe and practical safety demo. good work

  • Giant 13,8 Kv power line muhahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­h

  • @segarza When it`s connected to ideal MOSFET like apparatus it could have voltage yet no current. In other words when power line feeds into high resistance.

  • @justinfrnfr true but also not necisarily its a combo of both you can get hit with 120v and get killed if conditions are right.

  • @justinfrnfr and when is there voltage and no amps on power lines? never!

  • @soundseeker63 well it isnt..... its not that the wood is conductive its just there is more power coming from the lines than there is resistance from the wood

  • 5:50 HAHAHAHA!!! lol

  • LMAO 2:40  "You better recognize"

  • im a lineman is this is a good "show" for the public on the dangers of our job. we exchange out gloves and sleeves every 4 months for new ones, suppose to air test and visually inspect before each use. where i work we go hands on 4,800 volts from our hooks or bucket and 14,400 from the bucket only, so if you wanna man up glove 14,400 volts in the rain and see how much it lights you up.
