The Model Truck was Mine ..... James Howells , Burntwood Staffordshire UK
( I did not do the Caption)
It is not supposed to be a PYLON ( The Eiffel tower like structures
supporting the Power company cabels - NATIONAL GRID)
It is supposed to be a step down line transformer - pole PIG
Its an old wooden IKEA toy truck with a 12v mains transformer , a fan (
ex- Computer psu) cooled Transistor , LOPT - flyback Transformer and a
model of a pole pig in fault mode i.e. a helical Jacob's ladder or
rising arc
See the video
