500kV Tower Construction 3 -Line Work Time Lapse
Loading...
Uploaded by jcmegabyte on Jul 20, 2009
As the Tehachapi Renewable Energy Transmission Line Project nears completion in Bouquet Canyon, crews finish stringing the lines and connecting the insulators on this heavy connecting tower in 100 degree+ heat.
Many time lapse sequences show most of the day's work, including the last line being pulled into place by a winch truck, personnel being ferried onto the tower by helicopter, and numerous airlifts/deliveries of equipment and materials.
Finally, at the end of the day, most of the crew files down the tower leg... Yay - quittin' time! Filmed in Bouquet Canyon, California, July 2009. The music is "Symbian Rhythms V2" from the "Silicon Landscape" CD By Technician (yours truly). Full artist discography, MP3 downloads and CDs are available at the Technician website: HTTP://technician.jcmdi.com
Enjoy the show!

One of the best videos on Youtube, by far.

I am surprised to hear that wages are so low for such potentially dangerous work! I hope conditions change there for the better... Thanks for the view and nice comment about my video :-) Cheers!

Pretty cool... the time lapse makes the helicopter look like a giant mosquito, delivering ants to the tower. Almost wanted to swat at it... LOL
