Guy deadends are the connection between guy wire and anchor in a down guy application and must be sufficiently strong to exceed the rated breaking strength of the strand. A one-half inch diameter guy strand rated for 26,900 pounds is considered the threshold from distribution to transmission guying that would require a high-tension guy.
