BPL
http://www.atec.co.za is the company that installs PLC lines in estates and open streets. Frans from Atec agrees with me that Charles Kuun will never give permission but neither will he do anything about it. Which is the same thing this thread discusses http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php?t=29635 He has discussed their projects a length with Pretoria council and the message is the same to them as it was to me: Do whatever you want, dig up our electric cabling and install your PLC and Fiber - just don't tell us about it.

What http://www.atec.co.za does is build a small guard house, digg up the council reticulation point at the street corner - WITHOUT PERMISSION -, install the PLC equipment and provide hundreds of houses in a block with 40megs each in open streets. It does not have to be in an estate. The entire South Africa can be blanketed with PLC exchanges - with the full "passive" cooperation of council. Just don't expect council to ever admit to this, but neither will council do anything to stop us.

http://www.atec.co.za takes full responsability etc. And gentlemen please as I have explained - we are not America - as long as you don't blowup councils substation nobody can be sued for "damages".

http://www.atec.co.za has no VANS or any other license from Icasa. They are installing BPL in open streets and sending data over public roads using council power grid in open defiance of Icasa - nobody gave anybody permission.

Installing underground coupler on council grid
Download http://www.ambientcorp.com/PDFs/Ambient%20UG%20Coupler.pdf to see a picture of the actuall device. So it will be a simple matter of just digging up council electric cable exposing it and clamping the device around the powerline. No need to cut it or anything else.
