February Club Meeting

High Voltage Conductors

In-person only: LARC Clubhouse (4420 NW 41st St, Lincoln)

The February meeting will have a presentation on high voltage conductors by John Huseman, WDØEZI. This presentation will cover overhead and underground power distribution. We all like to put up antennas and towers. Have you ever noticed the high voltage conductors in your yard? Do you know where the underground conductors are? The presentation will discuss the National Electrical Safety Code, not the National Electrical Code. There will be videos of high voltage faults and pictures of skin damage from electric shock. The Amplitude magazine of July / August 2018 will be passed around. You will read about Eduardo Garcia who lost his left arm to electric shock from a faulted underground high voltage line.
