12F385 - 795 AAC Double Circuit Line Angle Framing (Obsolete - See 12F325)

Revision 2
Aug 12, 2022

Notes:

  1. Minimum 7’-0” for poles up to 45’ in height. Increase spacing to 8’-0” for poles 50’ and taller.
  2. Engineer must specify the size & number of down guys and anchors depending on conductor design tension, line angle, available down guy lead and span length. Refer to T&D Guideline 4-6 and Compatible Unit Sections A and G.
  3. Crossarms to be set to split the angle in the line. Guy should be set in the plane of the crossarm if possible.
  4. To avoid conductor contact during fault conditions, install conductor spacers (Compatible Unit I0320A-B) on span lengths greater than 150 feet.
  5. This assembly is intended for 795 kcmil AAC (Arbutus) primary conductor installed with a maximum working tension of 4,000 lb/Ø. For tangent spans less than 150' refer to Assembly Unit 12F384.
  6. Refer to T&D Guideline 4-23-1.0 for max. allowable line angle.
  7. New overhead double circuit construction is allowed in rural areas only. Refer to T&D Guideline 4-23-7.0 — Design Practices for Constructing Double Circuit Lines.
