Old photograph Note the pole with only 2 multi's on it. Looks like a 2 phase no-neutral line with an underbuilt arm for telephone / telegraph lines. Or could it be DC power?? Previous photos describe this line as being owned by the GNW railroad. One picture [154017517] shows an H structure with 4 wires, each dead ended with 4 suspensions = 55kV. Two circuits of DC? No way would they overinsulate a neutral on a WYE configuration.
