Hey /sci/, is there any way to pull electricity from a rubber coated electricity-carrying wire without splicing into it?

Magnets.

>>7849786
Depends on if it's AC or not
>>
>>7849792

From an overhead power line, which I believe is AC.
>>
>>7849798

Looks like potentially could be HVDC
>>
>>7849788

Could you elaborate?
>>
Most of those cables are shielded so you will not be able to.

However if it's not you just stick another unshielded cable next to it and voila. The electricity will be induced to the other wire.

That would be exceptionally weird. Most powerlines are not HVDC. HVDC two lines per pole, AC, 3 lines per pole.

You are probably trying to get electricity from a cable TV line.

Either way you are trying to do something illegal

Well, that's pretty cool. Really doubt there would be unshielded overhead power wires in a big city though. Bummer. Thanks
>>
>>7849825

I don't have a specific line in mind, just wondering if it's possible.

electromagnets are a meme
don't try

i think this can work? im not too sure

>use radiated energy that else would go to waste
>it's illegal

I bet it's those damn jews at it again.

You cant pull the electricity from it directly if thats what your asking. If you had an electromagnet and the knowledge base of an electrical engineer to set it up you could feasibly pull some energy out of the field and convert it to electricity but it would be expensive as fuck and you couldnt get much from a device that size
