Pylons of Duisburg-Rheinhausen
The Pylons of Duisburg-Rheinhausen are the two pylons of the combined 220kV/110kV poweline for 4 circuits (2 for 220kV, 2 for 110kV) crossing River Rhine at Duisburg-Rheinhausen with a span width of 570 metres. These 118.8 metre high pylons were built in 1926 and are equipped with 6 crossbars in 6 levels for carrying the 12 conductors.
Tecnical data - Height crossbar 1: 81.8 metres
- Span width crossbar 1: 17.5 metres
- Height crossbar 2: 89.8 metres
- Span width crossbar 2: 15 metres
- Height crossbar 3: 97.8 metres
- Span width crossbar 3: 12.5 metres
- Height crossbar 4: 103.8 metres
- Span width crossbar 4: 13.5 metres
- Height crossbar 5: 109 metres
- Span width crossbar 5: 11 metres
- Height crossbar 6: 115 metres
- Span width crossbar 6: 8.5 metres
The crossbars 1,2 and 3 carry the circuits for the 220kV-circuits, while the crossbars 4,5 and 6 carry the circuits for 110kV. This is in contrast to the standard mode of powerline construction where the circuiits for the highest voltages are on the topmost crossbars. List of towers
