Maybe there's something that somebody will say that could be of help in
the following situation.

Just a metre beyond the boundary of my garden is pole with an electrical
transformer on it, i.e. a large grey box up near the top. From this
pole wires goes off in three directions. There are the three wires that
bring the current to the box,


For information, those three wires carry 11,000 volts, 3-phase; not to
be trifled with. The other wires probably carry the 230/240 volts to
the various properties.
