Was at the barn where we board our horse doing some electrical work on Friday. Was checking the current draw of the MAIN 200 amp panel and had just put my ammeter clamp on one of the main leg wires and heard a loud BAM and all the lights in the Barn flickered off and on. Jumped out of my shorts, wondering what I had done. Then realized it probably wasn't me. Went outside to see what the noise was and saw the attached. Grain truck had snagged the calbe & phone lines going across the driveway. Same pole was snagged a few weeks ago by the sawdust semi-truck and replaced. Looks like they didn't raise the lines high enough again on the replacement pole. The grain truck has been coming here for 10-15 yrs every month using the same driveway.
Power stayed on until they cut it to remove the pole. Was only without power for a couple of hours. Total time from BAM to crew waving goodbye: 4.5 hrs. Made for an interesting afternoon, between the fire response and utility crews.
