whose line is it?

When you look at the lines on a utility pole, you may notice there are several sets of lines.

Most of the utility poles on Hawai‘i Island are jointly owned and may carry electric, telephone, and cable TV lines.

As you’ll see in the photo at right, higher voltage electric lines are situated at the very top of the utility pole, with lower voltage lines directly underneath. Telephone and cable lines are located farther down the pole.

P.S. Don't call the phone number in the document as I think the pdf is the Maui edition of the insert and lists the Maui number.

P.P.S.  Ah, here's the Oahu edition.
