I was always intrigued by why there are all those odd contraptions on electric utility poles. This explains it all and breaks down the concepts. I already was familiar with step down transformers and grounders but all the other equipment was a mystery to me.

In case of a double steel tubular pole mounted 3 phase distribution transformer is it important to provide an insulation/insulator between LA and metal channel on which LA is installed and why?
