| reply to plk Re: Define medium voltage
MV is between 600V and 15KV...although some say 24kV depending on the area of teh country. Anyway, there is only ONE transformer per home unless there is a cluster of homes a distance from the utility line, then they will feed 3-4 homes off one transformer. Remember, they stated this is a LOW voltage technology, or under 600VAC. Those wires in front of your house are typically at 4160V, then it is transformed to 220V and brought into the home, so at the pole they would need to put this wireless receive. Hence my point, why bother calling it "BPL" when it is only from the pole to the house??
Just an opinion....
