The power company knows that our neighbors and "others" are wired off our transformer. That is why they had agreements signed, that does not mean they pay.
In the campo if the power co. cuts some illegal line, chances are that there will be someone climbing back up the pole to reconnect before the power company gets a mile down the hill.
We literally have lines crossing above/ over our back lawn (future pool site) and it is not safe. What can we do? Start WWIII? I'm not about to dis the community that surrounds me. I am out numbered to say the least. Eventually, we will be 100% off the grid. When that happens I will remove the transformer.
There are Haitians down the way that are powered from barbed wire strung tree to tree. This is the way it is here. I have to admit the peoples here are thrifty, crafty and also reckless. At least we pay for what we use, no more.
