How many amps go into a house?

Do you prefer to work on/with above or below ground power?

Horror stories about things in powerlines causing damage?

Lastly, when cars crash into the infrastructure, what kind of cost is it to repair if the whole pole/transformer gets taken out?

Thanks!

The downside is that it also supplied a large shopping centre, a psych hospital, a 400 townhouse highrise and a huge suburb. They would get insurance claims every time it happened from shorts and surges.

Last I heard they put extra fencing up, and it has slowed the issues down.

Thanks for the replies!

Where I used to live there was this one transformer that must have had a target on it, it would get damaged (by a car) usually once every 3 months. Those poor linesmen!

I thought they might cost more than that, the biggest 3rd party payout I had every seen at work was $18,000,000 and involved a coal train.

Considering my son spends most of his time bored because he is an only child, I could see a roommate being very important.

Do you do any animal therapy? I have heard how dogs are proving a massive difference for adult prisoners, it seems like it could really help teens.
