Rule 56.4-C4

56.4-C4)    Passing on Same Poles: The radial clearances between guy and conductors of different ownership shall do so only between pole pin positions or outside of the outer pin position on the crossarm.

a)    Overhead Guys: Overhead guys passing through the level of conductors of different ownership shall do so only between pole pin positions or outside of the outer pin position on the crossarm.

b)    Anchor Guys: Undergrounded portions of anchor guys which pass through the level of communication conductors at positions other than between pole pin positions or outside of the outer pin position shall be sectionalized by insulators neither less than 6 inches nor more than 18 inches above the level of the communication conductors (see App. G, Fig 49b) and the guys shall clear such conductors by not less than 3 inches (Table 2, Case 19, Column C).
