I had the chance to get out to one of our recently constructed line designs in Michigan. It's always satisfying to see a design in the real world. I swear this one had almost every structure type and arrangement imaginable for a 138 kV line.
It’s great to see the use of guys, which allows these poles to be very efficient in load transfer minimizing the moments in the pole. The double guys to single anchor sets is another smart choice. A nice touch to include the solar farm on the left.
Nice work Steve. Is this the Sauk Solar project? I think I am only about 60 miles from me. I would like to drive out and see it.

1moNice job on the support cables on the right side. You can just see the tension on the post (in its curvature) as the wires make that turn (from the left into the photo).
