Guying transmission lines
Guying transmission lines
(OP)
I'm interested to find out what "mud sill guy" means and where I can find some specification for replacing / install this particular guy on a wood pole (existing transmission line).
Thanks
Thanks






RE: Guying transmission lines
I am not familiar with the term "mud sill guy" but I do know that a while back crews use to bury a length of pole horizontally an tie the guy strand to it. I would suggest you check out a double helix anchor for you needs. I think it can hold about 20,000 pounds. Check the specs to be sure.
RE: Guying transmission lines
There are guy poles that use timber at either tension or compression. There other similar name use such as "push guy", strut guy", "dead man" and other related terminology that may have relation with the mud sill or mudsill guy.
As reference see Section 145 to 147 of Standard Hanbook for EE, D. Fink, 3rd Edition. See 2 samples of guy poles found in the net.
