Lemax 3" Tall 2 in set/package.
A utility pole is a column or post usually made out of wood used to support overhead power lines and various other public utilities, such as electrical cable, fiber optic cable, and related equipment such as transformers and street lights. It can be referred to as a transmission pole, telephone pole, telecommunication pole, power pole, hydro pole, telegraph pole, or telegraph post, depending on its application. The first utility poles, as we know them today anyway, were erected in the middle 19th century and used to carry telegraph wires. With the rise of electricity usage across the country, utility poles were outfitted with insulators and primarily used to carry power lines. Back around the turn of the 20th century, many of the old wooden power poles were installed with cross arms — sometimes 4, 5, or more to a single utility pole — which carried dozens of wires through cities. Many people think of these types of power poles as “old fashioned,” and you could say they’re right. After all, it’s not very often that powerline workers will install a telephone pole or utility pole with more than 1 or 2 cross arms.
Symbolic meaning is up to the client, but Power/Utility Poles carry power to homes and business, sometimes representing the "support of power" or "communications foundations" or "carrying the lines of communication" i.e. internet, land line telephones and fiber optics. Summarized the utility pole supports power and communications.
