Current inducing reaction to earth's magnetism, Fleming's rule fashion ?
As you mention poles, I assume that was no higher than 5 or 6KV




It was quite possibly much higher. Lines through residential areas are
usually 7.2KV in respect to ground, but 35KV lines on wooden poles are
common too.


I have no idea of the tension on the poles but things were quite tense on
the ground.
