I can't tell from the picture what the height is. I'd expect the height to be
safe if designed by electrical engineers/designers. It is common to mount
stepdown transformers on poles, at least in USA.
The voltage on the secondary side can't be more than 440V in India.
If the poles are not too high, there should be barrier around it, I agree.
Electricity can be dangerous, however with proper precuations it can be
safely used.

Can electricity be fearful? Particularly when such high voltage seems to be

I found this interesting. Why is the installation considered dangerous? A
stepdown transformer has to be installed where the consumption is. There
appears to be ample space around the transformer. Is it the fear of
electricity that prompted the picture and the report? Dilip Deka From the

A stepdown transformer installed in the heart of a thickly-populated area of
Panpur in Jamugurihat may prove to be a cause of fatality any day. Photo:
