Rule 89.2-A


89.2-A.    Private Communication Circuits And Supply Circuits On The Same Crossarms (see Rule 32.4-C)

 

(1)    Supply Conductors Of 7500-20,000 Volts, Same Ownership: Where private communication conductors are supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors of 7500-20,000 volts, the private communication circuits shall have the strengths and clearances required for Class L circuits of 750-5000 volts. The private communication conductors shall be on opposite ends of the arms from the supply conductors and shall be separated a horizontal distance of not less than 36 inches from the nearest supply conductor. Where buck arms are used in connection with such circuit arrangement, the minimum vertical separation between related line and buck arms shall be 4 feet and the horizontal separation between the nearest conductors of the two classes of circuits on the same arm shall be not less than 36 inches plus any horizontal space provided by vacant pin positions which are required by climbing space rules.

(2)    Supply Conductors Of 750-7500 Volts, Same Ownership: Where private communication conductors are supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors of 750-7500 volts, the private communication circuits shall have the strengths and clearances required for Class L circuits of 0-750 volts. The private communication conductors shall be on opposite ends of the arms from the supply conductors with conductor clearances and the spacing between related line and buck arms in conformity with the requirements for combination arm construction. (See Rules 32.4-A3, 54.4-C2b, and 54.7-A.)

(3)    Supply Conductors Of 0-750 Volts, Same Ownership: Where private communication conductors are supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors of 0-750 volts, the private communication circuits shall have strengths and clearances as required for Class C conductors except that the clearances from supply conductors of the same ownership shall conform to the requirements for Class L circuits of 0-750 volts. The communication conductors shall preferably be located in the outer pin positions.

(4)    Supply Conductors Of 0-750 Volts, Different Ownership: Supply circuits of 0-750 volts and private communication circuits of different ownership may be supported on the same crossarm, provided the two classifications of circuits are installed on opposite ends of the arm and the nearest conductor of the two classifications are separated a horizontal distance of not less than 36 inches. Services direct from such a crossarm are not permitted to cross conductors of other classification supported on the same crossarm.

(5)    Change In Location With Respect To Supply Conductors: At both ends of any section of private communication circuits supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors in accordance with Rules 89.2-Al or 89.2-A2, suitable equipment shall be provided to pre- vent effectively the transmission, from one section of the line to another, of voltages exceeding 400 volts to ground or 750 volts between any two points of the circuit, including voltages caused under transient or fault conditions, by induction from or contact with the supply conductors supported on the same arms with the private communication conductors.

89.2-A.    Private Communication Circuits And Supply Circuits On The Same Crossarms (see Rule 32.4-C)

 

(1)    Supply Conductors Of 7500- 20,00021,000 Volts, Same Ownership: Where private communication conductors are supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors of 7500-20,000 21,000 volts, the private communication circuits shall have the strengths and clearances required for Class L circuits of 750-5000 volts. The private communication conductors shall be on opposite ends of the arms from the supply conductors and shall be separated a horizontal distance of not less than 36 inches from the nearest supply conductor. Where buck arms are used in connection with such circuit arrangement, the minimum vertical separation between related line and buck arms shall be 4 feet and the horizontal separation between the nearest conductors of the two classes of circuits on the same arm shall be not less than 36 inches plus any horizontal space provided by vacant pin positions which are required by climbing space rules.

(2)    Supply Conductors Of 750-7500 Volts, Same Ownership: Where private communication conductors are supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors of 750-7500 volts, the private communication circuits shall have the strengths and clearances required for Class L circuits of 0-750 volts. The private communication conductors shall be on opposite ends of the arms from the supply conductors with conductor clearances and the spacing between related line and buck arms in conformity with the requirements for combination arm construction. (See Rules 32.4-A3, 54.4-C2b, and 54.7-A.)

(3)    Supply Conductors Of 0-750 Volts, Same Ownership: Where private communication conductors are supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors of 0-750 volts, the private communication circuits shall have strengths and clearances as required for Class C conductors except that the clearances from supply conductors of the same ownership shall conform to the requirements for Class L circuits of 0-750 volts. The communication conductors shall preferably be located in the outer pin positions.

(4)    Supply Conductors Of 0-750 Volts, Different Ownership: Supply circuits of 0-750 volts and private communication circuits of different ownership may be supported on the same crossarm, provided the two classifications of circuits are installed on opposite ends of the arm and the nearest conductor of the two classifications are separated a horizontal distance of not less than 36 inches. Services direct from such a crossarm are not permitted to cross conductors of other classification supported on the same crossarm.

(5)    Change In Location With Respect To Supply Conductors: At both ends of any section of private communication circuits supported on the same crossarms with supply conductors in accordance with Rules 89.2-Al or 89.2-A2, suitable equipment shall be provided to pre- vent effectively the transmission, from one section of the line to another, of voltages exceeding 400 volts to ground or 750 volts between any two points of the circuit, including voltages caused under transient or fault conditions, by induction from or contact with the supply conductors supported on the same arms with the private communication conductors.
