    How the hell is this guy still alive. It's like watching a scene from final destination. This is work which should only be carried out by the DNO. Pulling a fuse is one thing, but working live on a live supply which should only be done a trained professional is takin' the biscuit.
    DO NOT ATTEMPT ANY OF THIS. 💀

    Looks like a 2x16mm2 copper PILC service cable. Very dangerous to be moving it about like that and without correct gloves or PPE. To do it correctly the DNO should have carried out this alteration by use of an underground joint and a new section of 2x35mm2 aluminum split concentric. No doubt someone didn’t want to pay or wait for DNO

      Aye mate that’s what I was thinking, like playing Russian roulette with a hand grenade is bending and manipulating that stuff. Don’t worry about it shorting out, it will be protected by a 800A fuse that will blow after about a minute😂 by that time there will be no cable left. In all fairness, he did do it on a nice dry day. 😂😂😂
