McWane Poles, A Division of McWane Inc.
In western Oklahoma a storm-hardening pole is often used as a standard practice for
new construction. This utility installs four ductile iron per mile to prevent pole cascading.
For example, Cimarron Electric Cooperative took a proactive approach to strengthening
its distribution system and saved its members millions of dollars by preventing system
cascading during the holiday ice storms of 2015. Cimarron now incorporates ductile iron
poles into its routine construction practices and installs two ductile iron poles per mile
for single-phase construction and four poles per mile for three-phase construction.
