COMPACT TRANSMISSION LINE STRUCTURE
Devices, systems, and methods are provided for compact transmission lines structure. A compact transmission lines structure may comprise a first subsystem of a pole and a crossarm, wherein the crossarm is stacked above the pole, wherein the crossarm comprises a cantilever end situated away from the pole. The compact transmission lines structure may comprise a second subsystem connected to the cantilever end. The second subsystem comprising a first diamond-shaped insulator assembly supporting a first single three-phase transmission line. The compact transmission lines structure may comprise a third subsystem connected to the cantilever end, the third subsystem comprising a second diamond-shaped insulator assembly supporting a second single three-phase transmission line, wherein the second diamond-shaped insulator assembly mirrors the first diamond-shaped insulator assembly. The compact transmission lines structure may comprise at least two shield wires configured to provide lightning protection.

AERIAL SEGMENTED VIRTUAL CONDUIT
An aerial cable support system includes a first cable holder with a first tubular member and a second tubular member attached thereto. First and second elongated links are attached within first and second opposed openings of the first tubular member. A messenger wire is inserted through a sidewall of the second tubular member. At least one cable is either inserted through the sidewall of the second tubular member or through a sidewall of a third tubular member attached to the first and/or second tubular members. By attaching a series of cable holders together using a series of elongated links, a virtual conduit system is created to push cable(s) along a messenger wire between two poles and to support the cables from the messenger wire.

SECUREMENT MEMBER FOR UTILITY STRANDS
A securement member for connecting strands includes a main body. A first aperture, a second aperture, and a third aperture extend through the main body. A fastener is coupled to the main body and is positioned adjacent to the first aperture. A strap is selectively received within the first aperture, the second aperture, and the third aperture in order to secure the strands to the main body. The fastener engages the strap to secure the strap relative to the main body.
CABLE HANGER
A hanger device comprises a plurality of cable supports, each comprising a parallel sidewall and a lateral shape retention sidewall where the parallel sidewalls and the lateral shape retention sidewall are separated by a wire engagement surface for holding one or more of the plurality of cables, where each of the lateral shape retention sidewalls includes a hook that comprises first and second hook sidewalls and a radiused surface that separates the first and second hook sidewalls, where each of the hooks opens in an exterior opposing direction; and a hanger surface that separates the parallel sidewalls, where the hanger device is hung on the hanger carrier by placing the hanger surface on the hanger carrier and the lateral shape retention sidewalls are pressed inwardly towards the parallel sidewalls and about the engagement surfaces so both hooks opposingly engage the cable.
