I asked my parents this question when on vacation as a child. They responded that those “balls on the power lines” were actually “floats” and were there to make sure the power lines didn’t sink when the road flooded. I can’t describe my internal panic as I imagined how very high the flood would have to be to reach that height. (We lived on the Gulf coast, and I saw numerous hurricanes and floods as a child) Yeah, my folks were mean.
