Utility Spectrum Policies
Guyed Towers are an integral part of a utility company's assets. Companies have been given the responsibility to ensure that those towers are maintained so they will perform their designed purpose. If their towers are part of their telecommunications network, a company cannot afford to have a weak link. If you are also the owner, you need to have reliable and safe properties. Corrosion of guy anchors can be a serious and costly problem. Replacing them is not cheap. Designing corrosion control for each and every site is also expensive, not to mention time consuming. And, of course, any tower failure can be costly both in terms of money and lives. During our presentation, we will discuss proven methods that are designed with the long life and ultimate serviceability of towers in mind. We will focus on innovative products and simple services that will ensure that guy anchors are protected against the potentially devastating effects of underground corrosion. These methods are easy to adopt and install and can be used on new or existing towers.
