Anatomy of a Typical Transmission Line

Typical long line in a rural area


 Most structures, as in this photo, are
tangents. (conductor remains straight as it
passes through the support assemblies)
 5-10% are angle structures
 5-10% are deadends

What Do
TowerPak™ Users Say?

®
®
“Hubbell’s comprehensive list of
products allowed us to vastly limit the
number of PO’s required. Also, if
Hubbell didn’t have a required part,
they were willing to purchase the
materials from other suppliers and put
them into our kits. It would have been
a huge ordeal for us to have to go out
and get new contractors ourselves. I
don’t think any other company would
have done that.”
-- Jim Anderson, Black & Veatch
Design Engineer

®
®
“We definitely wanted
everything kitted like Hubbell
offers. We didn’t want to have
to hunt around for parts.”

-- Alan Lippy, Henkels & McCoy


Sales Manager

®
®
“With multiple vendors, if pieces
don’t fit together, it’s a big
headache. With Hubbell, you don’t
have to worry… it’s all packaged
together, a one-stop shop.”

-- Jon Osborn, Black & Veatch


Lead Design Engineer
