| has gloss | eng: A utility pole is a pole used to support overhead power lines and various other public utilities, such as cable, fiber optic cable, and related equipment such as transformers and street lights. It can alternately be referred to as a telephone pole, power pole, telegraph pole or telegraph post, but these are all names commonly misused colloquially, as these names refer to their specific equipment. Another name common in Canada is hydro pole. Electrical cable is routed overhead as an inexpensive way to keep it insulated from the ground and out of the way of people and vehicles. Utility poles can be made of wood, metal, concrete, or composites like fiberglass. They are used for lower voltage power transmission; higher voltage transmission lines are carried on steel transmission towers or pylons. |
| has gloss | eng: A utility pole, telegraph pole, telephone pole, power pole, or telegraph post is a post or pole upon which telephone network equipment is situated. Similar poles are often used for electricity cables (with pylons being used for only the higher voltage applications) and frequently a pole will share both power and communications lines. Telegraph poles first became commonplace in the middle 19th century. At first they had only one wire, then in urban areas many. In Canada, the poles are commonly referred to as hydro poles, as the electric companies commonly have "Hydro" in their name. |

| has gloss | zho: 电线杆是用来把电缆电架起以方便电力或电信号的远距离传输。通常电缆会被高高地架在电线杆上，这可以远离行人、或跨过道路与建筑物。这种用电线杆架起电缆传输电的方法成本较低，所以应用规模非常大，几乎有电力供应的地方就会出现电线杆。一般居住点里电线杆会用水泥制成柱状立在路边，有时会以钢丝拉扯辅佐以防电线杆倒下；而用铁架制成的电线杆多出现在郊外，而在郊外有种特别高大的电线杆一般称为高压电塔，它用于架起主力电网的高压供电电缆。 |
