WeRise: if you look at any recently done 11kv/33kv h pole, they always come with an isolator switch/handle 1 Like

Nigeria is disorderly just like the haphazard nature of our connection. Electricians ought to be very careful. Rip to him |

From the look of things that man works for them but probably went on that mission without their notice or permission. Why the outright denial |

GloriousGbola:Yeah, you are right. But if they can be operated with the 11kv or 33kv line energised is the question. 1 Like |

WeRise: thats the whole point imho - to allow you to disconnect the transformer without denergising the circuit. denergizing the circuit comes at a cost. and they take this much much more seriously now. this man was a local electrican or contractor working on his own. my understanding is discos now take this very very seriously |

Hmmmm, they should have called a PHCN official not an electrician. |
Re: Electrician Electrocuted While Trying To Change Transformer Cable In Abia (Pix) by WeRise(m): 2:15pm On Apr 06, 2023 |
GloriousGbola:Okay. From my knowledge though, you need to de-energise the circuit before you operate the isolator. Operation of the isolator on-load will likely 'rain fire' on the operator, aside damage (burning) of the cable and probably damage of the transformer. The isolator is just a safety measure so that the transformer will not be made live when work is ongoing. 1 Like |

I work on transformers too but never have I ever worked on the high tension side. You'd be a complete idiot to work on the high tension line without making sure that there's no power on the grid. Even the DISCO officials who change high tension fuses ( G and P) always make sure that there's no power on the grid before they climb the H-pole. He died out of stupidity. RIP to him |

See wetin "Yes I sabi work" don caused. Person no deep down that he's not qualified but still decided to risk his life. And for how much? Who do I blame now? is it govt or society or the deceased or even God for making black race so backward. Maybe there's enough blame to go round. |

Poor silly untrained idiot! That looks to me like 11KV line. Anyway, one of those things developing nations go through before they start doing things properly. |

These guys no dey fear Sha. You don't know the amount of voltage that passes through those high tension wires? You still didn't kit up properly, and you still went ahead to do it when there was light. Even when Nepa dey work on power lines, they disconnect the light for while before they start work. You dey form James Bond abi. |
