New 69kV Transmission Line

Client: City of Siloam Springs
Location: Siloam Springs, Arkansas
Project Cost: $2.8 million

Project

Garver designed a new 4.6-mile 69kV transmission line along the City of Siloam Springs' north and east boundaries. This new line adds electrical capacity for a 20-year projected city growth.

The line starts near the Oklahoma/Arkansas state line at an interconnection point with Siloam Springs' power provider, Grand River Dam Authority. The line runs approximately 2.8 miles east to the location of a new proposed substation site and then turns south 1.8 miles to tie into an existing 69kV transmission line—thus completing a 69kV loop around the city.

The design uses single galvanized steel poles for aesthetic appeal and lifespan. The transmission line has capacity for one medium voltage under-build over most of its length.
