Tidy wiring question.

[NCS from Qbyn]

Is this has high maintenance as I suggested in post #13?. It does seem an obvious way of disguising cables in full view

Not that much maintenance. it took a while to paint the cable. I have had to cover some short lengths with outdoor tape, due to the effects of the sun on the insulation. Perhaps the most work has been repairing the poles that occasionally get damaged for one reason or another. However, in the scheme of things, it is not a major maintenance problem.

I suppose if one was really keen, you could do a scaled down version of the grid and use pylons etc to run the wiring. It'll look the part, but the maintenance would probably be soul destroying

Especially if pets are involved. The thought crossed my mind for about 5 seconds, but i could feel my naughty dachshunds reading my mind! To be fair they do respect most of the railway, but thin almost invisible wires on telegraph poles /pylons would be too much to ask.
