    Ohms Law, higher voltgae less current , smaller cables. its why if you look at your overhead power cables in your neighborhood the feeder cable feeding the transformer feeding your house (approx 12,000v) is very small compared to the 240V lines feedin individual homes

    They still need to pull wire to the pedistals . In my earlir photos you can see the conduit stubs are duct taped off. The might change out pedestal charging cables when they pull cable from the supercharger cabinets.

    Its about 1 mile in either direction down Sutterville to either 5 or 99/80/50. This is actually a pretty central location. Anything closer to downtown would have had issues with parking and higher lease costs. Delta shores Would have been convient for I5 not so much for 99 travelers
