The weld job isn't the bad part. The weld itself is pretty decent actually.
It's the fact they made up the gap between the two short pipes welding rather than having butted ends that the weld holds together.
They essentially 3D printed a pipe with weld

That looks like a loose connection so the current is flowing through the threaded rod and not from direct contact by the terminal with the bus.

Electricity is nuts. Where I work the power went funky one day, turned out the bus bar for one of phases in the power company hookup outside had completely melted through, and another was on its last thread. No main breakers had ever tripped, but the building had been designed as a warehouse with some office space and had later supported a lot of manufacturing equipment.

They didn't have phase loss alarms/detection? I remember this coming up on here before where some fault lead to a weirdly phase-unbalanced load, and how it started making other motors randomly speed up and slow down until a phase loss detection finally tripped.

Imagine being up on a ladder in damp, sweltering Kentucky heat having to reach all the way out to the side holding a hedge trimmer to trim the top off a hedge four feet deep and a hundred feet long. Now climb down the ladder, shift it forward a couple feet, climb back up, and repeat.

I had to do this. I can understand completely why those goddamned heroes are using a crane and mower.

Maybe this could be a drone thing. Make a blade that can be carried by a drone or two and just let it spin. You could set them and just watch after that everything could be coded even coming back for more batteries.

wire looks like its either 2 or 1/0 gauge stranded wire, breaking strength around 2000 lbs

zip ties look like heavy duty ties, breaking strength around 100 lbs

if the wire is super securely fastened at the ends (which i doubt) then the wire will spool around the drive shaft on the right until it runs out of slack and the zip ties snap. then either the insulation will melt straight off the wire from the exhaust on the left, or itll drag along on the ground until the insulation is worn off. either way youll get a short and everything will die

if it isnt secured super well at the ends then itll spool around the shaft until it runs out of slack, one or both ends will be yanked straight out of the battery terminals/fuse box, and everything will die
