Help ID this?

Neighbor ID'd it as a transformer from the electric company. That thing on the poles and submerged in oil. What you see in the picture came to:

Iron: 246 pounds
Aluminum windings: 4 pounds
Copper windings: 11 pounds



Some of the copper is coated, so it'll probably be #2. Most of it is thick enough to be #1.

Given its out of a old one but that just screams good info for someone dumb enough to go after a live one.

At least it'd thin the appropriate genetic pool.
