Aluminium is cheaper, isn't it? Seems like it would be smart

Cheaper but i'm wondering about metal incompatibility. Are the lugs on the towers copper or maybe they went with Aluminum. And bmah's right, unlikely to be dug out of the ground to make a few bucks. Lotsa noise and notice.

I was wondering that but once those cables are buried in the ground it’s not real likely anybody’s gonna dig them up and cart them off…right?

You do not dig. You cut both ends, and pull it.

Clearly I'm not thinking about this the right way.

And you don’t wait until construction is done and everything is all buttoned up…

Buellton is getting closer. All but four of the towers are installed and looking complete. The wire hasn't yet been pulled to the four nearest the DC cabinets. All cabinets are bolted in place with the DC units still in plastic covers.
