21.3 Guy means a tension member (a solid wire or stranded
wires) used to withstand an otherwise unbalanced force on a pole, crossarm
or other overhead line structure (see Rule

sometimes called a span guy.
B. Anchor Guy means a guy which has its lower anchorage
in the earth and is sometimes called a sidewalk, truss or ground guy.
C. Exposed Guy means a guy of which any part is less than
8 feet horizontally from the vertical plane of any supply conductor of more
than 250 volts (see
Figure 56–4
, and Appendix G,
Figure 44
).
D. Guy in Proximity means a guy of which any part is both
within a vertical distance of less than 8 feet from the level of supply conductors
and a radial distance of less than 6 feet from the surface of a wood pole
or structure (see Figures
56–3
, 56–4
, 56–5
