Spanish translation:camión grúa
Explanation:
A "bucket" in this context has nothing to do with water, as electrical circuitry is in question here. It is merely a protective cage built onto the end of a crane for electrical linemen. Since many cranes are attached to trucks, I think "camión grúa" comes close to what you need.

"(Molinos de) cubetas (o cubas) de agua"


Explanation:
I think you may be talking about some system to test aerial lifts by perhaps cranes or other lifting devices, being able to handle heavy weights like those you described. If so I would try "cubetas (o cubas de agua)". "Molinos de" could be used if the mechanism is similar to a waterwheel. luck :)
