Gantry series comparison

Contents

Overview

Use this page to help identify UK electricity pylon series by SF60 (etc) gantry towers. Within each voltage class the tower series are arranged in approximate chronological order of introduction. See the comparisons page for other comparisons. See the series page for the list of known series.

Not all series are covered by this page; coverage is limited to available data. See the project completeness page for details.

See also single circuit terminal towers as some are the same overall design as gantries.

Gantries

Gantries by series.

275 kV

There are presently no known 275 kV–only gantries. Note that L2 towers were designed for 275 and 380 (or 400) kV and are listed under 400 kV below.
