With those plastic insulators that are lightweight when compared to the old porcelain/glassware, they make easy work of lifting those new crossarms into place.
The new pot they were hanging on that pole was a 4kv can. Looks like they’re keeping same voltage but just upgraded wire pots and arms. Wish they would let us take a mass outage like that in New York lol. We pull wire in hot parallel everything in and remove everything with line hot.
A lot of your old 4kv was stuff put up back in the early 40s late 30s. Even for a cut over in Baltimore you got a 90% chance your taking a decent outage. Probably why they got guys on hooks. Need every swinging dick in the yard to get it done in the time frame.
Wood poles have become almost, if not more, expensive than steel or concrete. (Due to the pressure treating and strength required.) And, in earthquake prone areas, wood poles won't crack or bend like concrete and steel can.

Do you keep the power on when do that
They look like a contracting firm hired by your local power company
Are they in the union?

Never seen crossarms hung that way , bucket/lift makes things easier.
This actually looks like a 4kv cut over not sure what the primary voltage is they’re cutting over to.

@@linehandibew6205 yeah California is usually the same.

4KV that's pretty low by today's standards. Nowadays they use 7.2KV to ground, 12,470 volts phase to phase.
Is that each phase or total?
@@kgeitzel3293 Phase to phase, 3 phase delta (no primary neutral). SCE has a hard-on for delta primary in a large portion of their service territory.
Cheap wooden poles

@mxslick50 only uses steel here
