This guideline is designed exclusively for the
detection of defects affecting the serviceability of standing
wood poles. Its intent is to serve only as a guide to pole
users in the design of specifications for their own
particular systems. Sampling techniques dictated by past
experience, importance of lines or structures, and
economic considerations which are appropriate to
schedules determined from references such as listed in the
bibliography should be used. Serviceability should be
determined from data collected as outlined in this
guideline and by applying such to the rules and regulations
under which each pole user is required to operate. Most
utilities inspect poles on a ten-year cycle, but some extend
this cycle to 15 years in drier regions.
