i love morons + high voltage!! too bad that wire is actually aluminum with a steel core!!
copper would corrode and become less conductive within 6 hours. Kritz, judging from the insulators, i'll say that was probably 13.8Kv.. it was a bang and a flash.. probably arced to the morons for a hot second too.. i think it'll arc 14" or something like that..( 13.8Kv.. ) theres some voltages that'll arc 14 FEET. so, the entire time you're in the ionization zone, you'll be a conductor until you're out of said zone. Kudos!
Yes, it was 13,800 volts!
