Overview
Eagle power pylons carry a 2X400 kV high voltage line. The Eagle power pylon is designed as a shaft with arms that reach for the sky – it is an optimistic shape that sends a positive signal to the surroundings.
The shaft and cross-arms are made of hot-dip galvanized steel. The cross-arms are held in place by stainless steel wires.
The pylon structure is based on a cylindrical shaft and rhomboid section cross-arms. This particular design makes the cross-arms appear slimmer.
The design encompasses a family of pylons: suspension, flying angle, tension and dead-end tension. Where the line ends or changes to underground cabling, a sub-station is established and terminal tension pylons are used.
The Eagle Pylon Family

- Flying angle pylon for maximum 10◦ deviation
- Tension pylon for 10◦ to 18◦ deviation
- Tension pylon for 18◦ to 30◦ deviation
- Dead-end pylon 0◦ to 30◦ deviation
