Here in mid-coast Maine, the big wet snow storm is starting to melt. The East Beverage was not hearing 4T4TA well, and an inspection found breaks and multiple large branches on the wire.
Two support poles were also down under very large branches. Large branches here can have the diameter of trees of some localities. Sliding wire schemes are good, but when a support pole gets slammed on both side of an insulator at the same time, it does not always work.
Beverages in the woods can help us old guys get the exercise we need. (; > ))
