If you mean bury it? NO! It is insulated copper probably!

Polysol insulation will burn off, Polythermaleze will burn off with a lot of
heat, Formel insulation will probably not come off with any fire. These
coatings are usually made to withstand severe heat in use.

You could use it for a long wave antenae or how about a lightning collector
to power that 25W bulb for a few seconds with the $100K in equipment to
catch that once in a lifetime strike?...LOL

Wind a huge Tesla coil on your roof and show the neighbours your nuts! (or
drop your pants when they are looking)

Can't this tranformer be used by somebody to generate a second 120V from a
single phase 120V inverter? It sounds pretty beefy.

BTW: once you knock the wedge out of the coil form the laminations will be
easier to get out. This keeps them from buzzing until the varnish and other
impregnations go into it.

Can I use this copper as a grounding wire?
