Benefits of Wood as a Utility Pole Material

• Long-Life Span o ~45 years national average without remedial treatment

• Lowest Cost o Both initial and full life-cycle costs

• Proven Performance o “Go to” overhead line construction material since the early 1900’s

• Climb-ability o Ability to service attachments without heavy equipment

Benefits of Wood as a Utility Pole Material

• Supply Chain is Proven o Even in natural disaster events where demand is high, it has met the

challenge of providing the necessary poles in required timeline.

• Beneficial Physical Properties o Good electrical insulator, resilience to wind and mechanical impacts

• Easy Maintenance and Modification in Service

• “Green” o a treated wood pole have a reduced environmental impact when

competed to other utility pole materials.

o A renewable and plentiful resource

o Suggested corrective actions:

– Re-route attachment

– Move attachments to satisfy clearance needs

– Re-tension attachments

– Replace with appropriate pole length

Load exceeds pole’s rated capacity

o Suggested corrective actions:

– Re-route attachment

– Replace with appropriate pole Class

– Increase pole’s load carrying capacity

NIST - NESC

134

While this is truly a safety code, it is applied for use as a

design code in lieu of other guidance.

…the question that exists is whether the baseline set forth in

the NESC addresses the performance desired for resiliency

when considering all hazards (flood, wind, seismic, ice …….)

NIST – NESC Rule 250C

135

Rule 250C

The ASCE 7-10 wind maps were revised to better represent

the wind hazard. …. However, these maps are currently not

used by the NESC based on a decision by their code

committee to retain the use of the ASCE 7-05 wind maps.

Rule 250C

Most distribution structures are lower than the 60 ft height

limitation, therefore, most utilities will not design their

distribution lines to the ASCE 7 criteria (something that may

want to be reconsidered depending upon performance of

these systems during hurricanes and tornadoes over the past

2 decades).
