ABSTRACT:
A high voltage electrical transmission line support structure is constructed virtually completely from glass reinforced composites, comprised of vertical ribs, reinforcing cross bracing members and a skin composed of composite panels, enabling the reduction in elevation and closer spacing of conductors, and the creation of a smaller support structure weighing half or less the weight of a steel tower of the same power rating. The resulting structure requires substantially less ground right-of-way, and EMF radiation is attenuated in the immediate tower area due to the closer phase spacing.
