The house was loaded with shit top to bottom in every room. Very labor intensive job. Accessing walls to open up took some time because of all the contents inside. It was quicker for the lineman to cut power at this one.
@@fa3556 I’m a lineman for a local power company where I live. I had a call at night for 911 level 2 (structure fire). I responded with my little tool bag. I had to walk in about 3 blocks because of all the fire apparatus blocking the street. I arrived & talked to the chief who assigned me the safety officer to cut power. He walked me around the side of the house. Every window was blowing flames on all four exposures. With all that fire 🔥 I didn’t need my flashlight 🔦 to see. He showed me where the meter can was. I pulled the meter & tested de-energized on the customer side & I blanked it off hot. The service was mid spanned out about ten feet from the pole. There was heavy volume of fire 🔥 on either side of me but I had a job to do. Like fire fighters. Lineman have balls the size of a dump truck. I observed 2-3 man crews training 2-2-1/2” lines in to the open hatch way. They weren’t making any progress. I hung out until it was the end of my shift incase they needed me. Later about 2:30 am I got the call from the building department to go out there to cut the old service down. I found out afterwards why the fire was soo big on a cape cod house. The previous tenent was storing car & truck tires in the basement? The fire of origin was the basement. Every room was filled with tires as well? The previous tennant was a hoarder of tires. Even the detached garage was filled with tires. They kept the dust down in the driveway by releasing their old motor oil on the ground without trying to contain it. So the whole front yard was soaked in old black motor oil. I never saw such a disgraceful house as that? They must have had a serious mental problem? Great coverage & an excellent stop in challenging conditions! Cheers 🍻
Sometimes you take your time putting out the fire because it's such a mess inside that you don't want to come back and fight another fire. If you know what I mean.
North Bellmore FD told me about this
Oooof, that house has seen better days.
Lots of folks standing around. Tons of. Rigs..remember water on the fire.

Power meter must have been in the basement? Hence why the lineman had to climb the pole?
Nice stop!
