I'am working for a company in South Africa. This one day i was send out to a job me not knowing what the job was becuase the boss already "inspected" the site. When i arrived on site i saw the danger lurking onto my site.I had to pump under high voltage rail lines that could only be shut for 15minutes at a time. On the pictures you will see what i mean. Thanks for caring for our safety this is an awesome site.

looks like less 17 feet?

That I would have to say is deffinitly a trailer/line pump job!!

What did you do when the power was ON? Fold up?

Holy batfeathers Robin.I presume your awarness level was rather high.A little brain trick the folks at bbcp came up with.Take orange cones and put them in line (your safe distance of 17').Also employe the use of a spotter,not a brain dead one (he must be alive).This takes the what if out of the equation.

My boss would have told them to get a line pump. What was on the otherside of the wall?

I would have not used the boom and be a line pump for the day/night.  once the operator leaves the yard with a pump, the machine is the operators responsibilty.  The operator is legaly accontable.

17 feet.  NO over top.

keep em tire side down

Shortstik said it best once your out its up to you to make the call. Bust that transition elbow and get out the pipes
