A little more perspective
The utility’s published wood-pole table pairs a forty-foot pole with a six-foot minimum setting depth. Selecting that exact setting gives 40 minus 6 equals 34 feet, or 10.3632 meters, above ground. Different ground conditions and engineered settings produce different exposed heights; the full pole length remains 12.192 meters.
The illustration omits the buried six-foot section and ends at the top of the wood. A modest crossarm and insulators sit below that endpoint. The fittings, timber grain and exact taper are interpretive, and no conductor clearance or installation design is implied.
