We are rebuilding an aging 115 kilovolt (kV) single- and double-circuit electric transmission line between our Tarboro and Parmele substations in the counties of Edgecombe and Pitt, North Carolina, between the towns of Tarboro and Parmele.
After six decades of reliable service, the existing wooden and steel structures and related components on the 15.7-mile line are at the end of their service life and need to be rebuilt to meet current safety and reliability standards.
The new single-circuit weathering steel monopole and H-frame structures and double-circuit weathering steel monopole structures are approximately 10 feet taller on average and will be located near the existing structures using the current transmission line easement. No new right of way is needed.
