This picture was taken in Emerson Manitoba near the North Dakota border. Imagine having this in your back yard. Here we have one of the town feeders leaving to feed customers in the rural; but first it goes through an interchange bank. Right after the distribution transformer on the first pole, the line goes through a set of regulators to maintain and boost the voltage. Next we have a set of all single phase OCR's or oil circuit reclosers which are used to isolate the line and trip when there is a fault. At the end, we have the actual interchange transformers on a huge platform that boost the voltage from the 4.8KV (town voltage) to 14.4KV for distribution in the rural. At the end, we have the first transformer bank that runs off of the higher voltage which appears to feed a water station owned by the town. They're the only transformers in the town that run off of the rural distribution 14.4KV voltage. Overall, it's quite the sight to see. Next two pictures show more detail.
