CPS Energy has released the revised Pole Attachment Standards Version 4.0 (the “Standards”) today, April 1, 2019, which include the integration of more detailed procedures for strand-mounted Mid-Span Installations (WiFi Access Points). CPS Energy continues to work with stakeholders to ensure the adoption of best practices in the Standards to further streamline our processes and operations for the benefit of all attaching entities.
Version 4.0 of the Standards become effective November 15 2019. The revised Standards will be posted on the Pole Attachment Services page on CPS Energy’s public website (www.cpsenergy.com/poleattachments).
