Hi,
whilst driving down down the motorway yesterday down the M5 or M42 can't remember which I notice they are replacing central reservation lights by the looks of it.
Anyway, just wondering, the power that feeds street lights and road signs etc, where is it fed from? I know it sounds daft but even just normal road signs in villages that have a light over them, the power for them where's it connected to? Is it metered somewhere and is it RCD protected or have a DB somewhere?
just wondering really, I have absolutely zero knowledge of this area but just thought I would like to know to satisfy my curiosity!
does anyone know?
