This pole looks like it was installed as of 2014 and maybe close to the summer, since Bing Map had a massive update. But I'm wondering if it was before or after CL&P's current specs... Though I always love the sight of a brand new pole with wooden crossarms and V-braces. Even though I'm sure CL&P is strictly going the fiberglass route and probably indefinitely, but I'm supposing sometimes they'll use their previous specs? Only time will tell... : / Kudos to CL&P and a lot of other utilities that recycle the street light brackets/masts! Source: Bing Maps

Nice classic 1970's CL&P "flat-top" construction with 15kV sky-glaze porcelain. I still like Hendrix polymer insulators but not as much as before they've become WAY overused and the rather generic post-1980's/90's CL&P constructions appeared all over the grid. Source: Bing Maps

Typical 1990's-early 2010's CL&P specs, which has become very generic since countless lines in the past 10-20 years have been replaced with these (and the 8' crossarm equivalents), but I'd still gladly take this over fiberglass. Period. I believe this was taken in 2014, so I think CL&P still does on occasion or certain areas still use their previous specs, since they've begun (dreadfully) using fiberglass arms on everything. Also, I believe these poles are using the newest Hendrix insulators, which seem to look like a cross between the typical 15-35kV polymer insulators and porcelain skirted insulators. Source: Bing Maps
