(haipo) - About a week ago, an electricity pole collapsed on Ovadia Street in Haifa. The employees of the electric company arrived on the scene and took care of the hazard, but when residents saw how the pole was repaired, they wondered if it was a temporary or permanent repair.
Is the repair correct?
About a week ago, an electric pole fell on Ovadia Street in Haifa, which caused a power outage throughout the neighborhood. Following the incident, the Electric Company employees arrived at the scene and repaired the hazard, but the appearance of the repair succeeded in confusing the residents as to its integrity.

improvised means
The residents of the street reported the case to the Ether Hai Pe system and expressed their concern about the possibility that the page was not fully corrected and it is conceivable. According to them, it appears that the pillar was tied by improvised means and remained in a tilted position, so they are skeptical about its stability and safety. The photos sent by the residents to the system indicate that it is a column made of concrete, but it is broken and crushed and it seems that it was only temporarily "reinforced", and not as a permanent solution.
A few days later, after we waited to see if further treatment was done and the pillar was taken care of, the residents again sent recent photos, in which the pillar is seen in the same condition - still tilted and at least in general view - raising doubts about its stability. Accordingly, the residents are still worried and waiting for answers.

It is important to note that throughout the world, the most common are electric poles made of wood, but in recent years concrete and metal electric poles have been increasingly used. The reinforced concrete electricity poles, like the one found on Ovadia Street, are considered stronger and provide better insulation compared to the wooden poles, but the main question now is whether the treatment carried out on the pole is proper and safe.
The electricity company delivered to Hai Pa:
"The electricity company is working to replace the pole in the coming days, in accordance with the required approvals."
All the major municipalities in Israel are promoting with the electric company the removal of the outdated infrastructure of electric poles with lamps on them and replacing them with underground infrastructures with beautiful and new lighting lanterns
Apart from Haifa Municipality, in the neighborhoods with the highest property taxes in Israel.
In the entire Carmel ridge, the dangerous overhead electricity poles remain and old and ugly lanterns are attached to them. There is no plan in the Haifa municipality with the electric company and this is despite the fact that there is Tama 38 and sewer infrastructure is being replaced anyway because the sewer lines to the ridge neighborhoods are outdated and have trouble keeping up with the load. It could also be used to lower the electrical infrastructure underground in one move.
It's just that the Haifa municipality is lazy and doesn't want to budget for this hazard.
This is how luxury neighborhoods in the ridge such as Carmel West, Hatshebi, Kabir, Carmelia and many more simply suffer from outdated electrical infrastructure and the ugliness of the streets with electricity poles that, after digging sewers near them or taking down buildings and shaking the ground - even become dangerous.
Where is the police 👮
souls.
Redemption risk and all the experts have a little modesty.
Contractors work for an electricity company and try to save themselves and owe a lot to the electricity company that pays without supervision because in an electricity company you don't leave an air-conditioned office.
Talpiot Market The building has been renovated but the surroundings are neglected the sidewalks are dilapidated and dirty reeking of sewage
shame
From the article we understand that the reporter does not really understand electricity or electricity poles,
All the commenters who give advice without understanding and seeing all the (temporary) correction that was made - it is better not to give unfounded advice,
The column was temporarily strengthened using arms + an anchor to the ground, there is no insurance risk. The column can last like this for years.
It's a shame that an article like this is used - with partial and incorrect information - to attack the electric company,
Full disclosure - I work for the Electric Company, and I know the page discussed in the article
Yossi, apparently you also work for the electric company like Limbo and both of you do not understand anything about the stability and static strength of the electric pole.
The "anchor" you are talking about is many times weaker than the concrete electricity pole it is supposed to support.
The column is supported by the electric cables that do not allow the column to finally collapse.
Please go to the building engineering department in the power plant division and learn something from the engineers there.
You may also think that all the employees of the electric company are at the shallow level of you and your colleague known as Limbo.
Something bad is happening at the electric company - the pole is completely broken and can neither be repaired nor "dressed" as seen in the photographs.
The column is a "dangerous structure" for all intents and purposes and is required to be replaced immediately and not in a few days.
This is a criminal responsibility of the electric company.
If you had read to the end and understood, you would not have written this...
On Geula Street. The electric pole shines into the thick and tangled trees. Beautiful work only in Haifa. Was there light??
Aalak jewish brain hahahah garbage brain they supported the column on the side that collapsed whoever said the column won't collapse on the other side should be supported from all sides on column 11 zeros who know nothing about life
You can move to Lebanon, we are sure the electricity is better there
What to do we understand money and peace
Less construction and terrorism.
I just feel sorry for the flashlight. I really like the flashlight from this model compared to the LEDs that are put everywhere these days.
