The route for an overhead electricity line is surveyed to provide a profile (gradients) of the route -including any obstacles (roadways, rivers, outbuildings, etc.). Wherever possible, individual poles are placed where they will cause the least obstruction to farmers' machinery, etc. Ideally, means utilising natural or man-made features -e.g. following hedgerows, stone walls, etc. But, ultimately, their locations and, therefore, their distances apart, depend upon ensuring that the conductor sag remains above the minimum safety clearance, allowing for changes in temperature, ice loading, etc., and taking into account the profile (gradients) of the land and obstacles along their route. This is determined by a combination of the heights of adjacent poles and their distances apart and gradients/obstacles between. For routes across open, flat, countryside, the poles are likely to be roughly equidistant but, for route profiles that vary considerably in height, with obstacles, these distances can vary considerably.

What are power poles or lines?
um... isnt it kinda obvious? they are the cords that hang all over the place that carry electricity.
What is the thick wire called which goes along the electricity?
as far as i know it doesent have a name!!
What is a form of electricity that attracts things?

How far apart do you put outdoor pathway lights?
It depends on the lights you use. You want the light to slightly overlap the other lamps.
How far apart to put can lights?
Based on the height of the ceiling the lights can be placed at half the distance. For a ceiling of 14 feet, the lights should be at 7 feet.
How far apart do you set poles in pole bending?
21 feet apart
How far apart are the vertical poles in high jumping?
10 feet
How far apart are the poles in the gymkhana quadrangle?
quadrangle includes 6 poles. 2 timing poles and 4 poles that you actually turn. the four poles that you turn are each 75 feet apart from each other forming a square. the timing poles are directly in the center of the square and are 30 feet apart from each other.
How far apart are the foul poles in Yankee stadium?
it is different on every feild
When was Poles Apart created?
Poles Apart was created in 1994.
Are there outlets on electricity poles?
No.
Who far apart are the longitude lines?
Longitude lines are farthest apart at the equator, where the distance between them is about 69 miles (111 kilometers). As you move towards the poles, the longitude lines converge until they meet at the poles.
Does lines of longitude get shorter as they approach north and south poles?
Yes, lines of longitude converge at the poles, so their distance apart decreases as they approach the poles. At the poles, lines of longitude are essentially touching, whereas at the equator they are farthest apart.
What are further apart at the equator than at the poles?
Lines of longitude are further apart at the equator than at the poles. This is because the Earth's circumference is greatest at the equator, causing the lines of longitude to be spaced farther apart to cover the same distance around the Earth.
What are the release dates for Poles Apart - 2000?
Poles Apart - 2000 was released on: USA: 8 July 2000 (Los Angeles Outfest Gay and Lesbian Film Festival)
Do north pole and north pole attract each other?
If you're talking about magnets, then yes, north poles attract south poles.Two North poles repel, and two South poles repel.If you're talking about the Earth's north and south poles, those are justlocations. They're about as far apart as it's possible to get on Earth, andthey have no influence on each other.
