What’s on an electric power pole?
I mean still a not completely accurate, lots of the time the voltage is much higher the 12,000 volts and the transformer on the pole may be a governor instead.
They ripped off AEP though.

I thought you said this as a joke about the misspelling. Nope, it’s actually guy wires. TIL

All of the birds died in 1986 due to Reagan killing them, and replacing them with spies that are now watching us. The birds work for the Bourgeoisie.
The guide mentions it but doesn’t go into it: this is a diagram of a distribution pole. These are typically wooden. You would see these in any residential or commercial areas that actually consume electricity.
The other type of electric pole is called a transmission pole/tower. These are typically made of metal (steel), are taller, and carry three or more distinct levels of cable. You have probably seen these when driving on highways, because transmission lines act kind of like the highways of electricity. Electricity is sent through transmission lines at a very high voltage, which minimizes loss as electricity travels long distances, then the voltage is stepped down to enter more localized networks of distribution line. Finally, the voltage is stepped down one more time at the specific user of electricity to match the voltage coming out of your outlets.
