The next tower of the line is still under construction, but it is from special interest, as it is a tubular steel structure and not a lattice structure. When completed, it will be as the previous tower be capable of carrying two 380 kV and two 110 kV-circuits. In the background, you can see a small...

I wonder than the AI is not able to create straight lines and lattices for the towers. Maybe the algorithm can't decide what is cables and what is towers - and what is a 5-legged dog.

This is "Deep-AI", a so-called artificial intelligence, which is able to create images from a text input. It can be free used by everyone without registration. https://deepai.org/machine-learning-model/text2img I entered terms like "Electricity pylon", "high-voltage power li...

Interconnection between Germany and France The cities of Strasbourg in France and Kehl in Germany form a common urban area. There are multiple bridges crossing the river Rhine connecting both cities, even a tram line operates between both cities since 2017. Beside traffic, also a high-voltage power...

In the earliest years of power transmission, peopled feared the new technology and its power and they tried anything to protect themselves from the dangers of electricity. So there was a law in Germany around the year 1900 that on all crossings of railways and sometimes roads a metal structure, call...

What happened to the pylon on the right, one of the wire horns is missing. :o Somewhere here the question came up about the old one-circuit 110 kV powerline between Karlsruhe and Pforzheim. I can tell you, this is NOT the line from 1917 but indeed a very old line (I think 1920s, when the following p...

I have no information concerning the age of the 110 kV-powerline from Karlsruhe to Pforzheim. As I know this line should be dismantled when the 380 kV-branch to Pforzheim is operational and that the 220 kV-line from Karlsruhe to Pforzheim should then run with 110 kV. It should then also feed the su...

It's a single circuit tower with a triangle shape wires. This triangle tower or cactus tower looks like Hollandish silhouette with first two upper arms.

Toliman, you are from the Pforzheim area, right? In the year 1920 there was the first 110 kV power line in south west Germany built between Forbach hydroelectric station and Mannheim, with a branch to Stuttgart via Pforzheim a few years later. The original power line to Mannheim was reconstructed or...

They didn't even used all the space available on the crossarms on the right side for some reason. Maybe this was used to be a anchor tower and later they decided to use it as angular tower.
