Filipino Engineer Creativity

Where can you find an electric meter bank mounted 10 meters above ground? Only in the Philippines.

Driving passed by these electric meter banks, I could not help myself but asked, is this a Filipino Engineer creativity? Or just an absurd method of customizing the requirements of a customer.

These electric meter banks are used to supply electricity to informal settlers communities where electric power pilferage and illegal connections are very common. Also, these areas are prone to flooding. Elevating the electric meters above flood level is required. This is only in the Philippines.
