Looks like a pretty recent installation considering that the service conductors haven't been hooked up yet!

I almost want to say this is in Enid, OK. If I am not mistaken, they have a thunderbeam that is mounted like that.

It was in Enid. It was replaced with a Thunderbolt.

Thanks for giving me credit for the photo :roll:

It says right on my photo that it's in Enid. And if it matters to anyone, the Thunderbeam was relocated to a park at S 4th St and E Iowa Ave.

Sorry about that. I guess this can be locked now.

Tyler, this is no ones fault but yours, and you do not need to be rude when something happens that is not in your favor. He asked a simple question not knowing who took the photo and the location of the Thunderbeam. I see no watermark in the photo indicating that this is your property.
