A guy brought a load of trusses for me. When we got them unloaded, I told him to pull straight through a wide gate into the hay field (recently cut) and make as big of a swing as he needed to turn around. I showed him the electric line to my shop and told him I'd watch to make sure he'd clear it. He must have had six inches of clearance - I stepped off of the running board and he made his circle in the field. I had walked back to the pile of trusses when I heard a racket. On the way out of the field, he caught the line to the shop and pulled it down off of the building. There was a slight incline there, and the only thing I can figure is that incline lowered his rig going in and raised it going out. Kinda like my shop door - I can back the tractor in, but the stack won't clear driving in forward. He was dismayed about tearing down the line and started to give me company info, but I waved him off - I'm the one who talked him into driving through there, and I should have stuck around to help him get back out.
I rented a trencher the next day and buried every line on the place.
