Are they? Antique all the same, haven't seen em in a first world country since i was a child. We use these in Europe, i guess we care a little more about our infrastructure not being totally crap:xer0s wrote:I believe those are power lines...no?
Yes, but I assume the water supply is underground. So it would seem logical to put the electricity supply down there as well, while you're at it.Eraser wrote:As for them not being underground, I guess that in some cases it's just not practical. In Holland, we're just lucky to have relatively soft ground beneath our feet, so it's easy to dig a trench and put a few cables in there. In rocky mountain areas, it's a whole different story. I also guess it's cheaper to do it above ground if you have to cross several hundreds of kilometers.

It comes down to how popular they are, I'm struggling to think of a time where I've seen low voltage power cables above ground, even in some of the most hard to reach areas that need to use a dish to get the internet. The UK are now stuffing their high voltage lines underground n all. I know in the 80s above ground telephone lines were old news and don't see them anymore either, having that stupid cable connected to the roof of your house >: EEraser wrote:Those powerlines Ryoki posted are used for transporting electricity over relatively long distances and a lot of power is flowing through there. I think they use them in the US as well, but for local distribution, smaller poles are used.

It's simply not true that powerlines like those pictured in Geoff's photo aren't used in Europe. Look in countries outside of the Netherlands (as close as Germany, Belgium or France) and you'll see the use of similar powerlines is quite abundant.
I'm sorry for party pooping the whole bash Geoff thing here, but it was baseless bashing anyways
