An anchor or down guy used at the ends of pole lines in order to counter balance. The pull of the line conductors is generally known as-
Terminal guy
Based on the function described – counterbalancing the pull of line conductors specifically at the ends of pole lines – the correct terminology is Terminal guy . The terminal guy provides this essential support by transferring the conductor pull to the earth through the anchor.
