I wonder why the system can leak so much current to earth and still not cut out.

I also wonder about the voltage on those transmission lines, right outside people's houses.

@CppGuy @MissInformation You have never been to the US, have you?

Heh! A few times, yes, but it was back around the turn of the century, and I didn't study the wiring. 😄

@CppGuy @MissInformation Basically, whenever you see one of those tin can shaped transformers on a pole, what goes in has at least 13kV.
