Discussion Fiber and Electricity cables risk

[gigedic]

No way...
Check the wires in town...all r in poles and even Boxes too hanging in there...rain waters always pour down...even in electricity wires and cable's...For ofc cables nothing happens...
Yes its having power induction for and in bsnl internet cables...it effects our electronic equipments in bsnl internet cables...

Touching a wet pvc cable tied to naked electricity line won't give shock?

1. Poles don't carry electricity. Beautiful engineering is at play to insulate high voltage lines from these poles.
2. Poles are further made of concrete which is a bad conductor.
3. Poles are grounded to push any possible leakage down.

Your anecdotes are just blank observations with utterly bad inferences.
