Extra Roll of Cable?
Extra Roll of Cable?
(OP)
Sorry if it is an elementary question! I see everywhere on streets in over head distribution cables, that there are two (what looks like an) extra rolls of cable with an equipment in series with them (the equipment looks like big old rheostats in electrical labs) , what is this configuration?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I was in Labrador once trying to move a XFMR transported on a flat bed... Thank god all the wire/cables crossing road ways had goof loops, as we needed the extra slack on the wire/cable to lift it up so we could get the unit underneath.

Splicing fiber is enough of a PITA without adding "while poised on a ladder hanging on a wire six meters in the air" to the task.
Here's one company's spec for it:
