Electricity pylon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1394 words)
Antennas for low power FM radio, television, and mobile phone services are sometimes erected on pylons, especially on the steel masts carrying high voltage cables.
When spanning broad valleys, larger cable spacing is sometimes necessary to reduce the possibility of cables touching.
