Voltage is not measured in KVA sir. Moreso Transmission Line(A.K.A Power line) in Nigeria doesn't carry more than 330KV (330KV is the highest voltage level in Nigeria)
Thanks

Powerline is more than 330KVA my brother..330KVA are on tension line,it can transport current on a long range like Lagos to lbadan without loosed much content unlike 110KVA before it step down for 220 volts
That's a 33kv tower not 330. The guy was almost touching the sky wire which does not carry live current. If he had come as much as 5 meters close to the phase lines (RYB), he'd have been gone in microseconds.

He has been cajoled to come down.He is an Aboki...one of the bowler guys..maybe he has taken a hard drug or gum which is very common amongst them.He was enticed with money when he came close and refused to come down.

This is how they brought him down and some TV crews started filming him...Pix







science students everywhere..... even an illiterate aboki man is a scientist. Nigeria improving lives since 1960.

He did not touch the real thing but when he got to the peak,he touched the uppermost wire.People said it is neutral.All the same no sane person will try that stunt on a live powerline as he did.

The uppermost is for telecommunication.

Also, the power line in the picture isn't a 330kv power line but that of 132kv

33kv ke! That is 132KV Bro. 33kv is distribution voltage.

Besides what he touched is d skywire used for communication. If he had touched any of d 3 phases RYB, he will turn charcoal black

Those power lines don't carry neutral. The upper line is for protection against thurder lighting. My guess is there was no power on those line.

I was there life yesterday. There was no electricity power on those cables if not he won't have gotten to the top of it without him getting electrocuted by the magnetic waves of that high tension. You guys think it easy going close to such high tension cables. It shows the state of the country we are in, no electricity
