[Towertalk] Safe Fall Distance Tower to AC?

[jhburns@attglobal.net (Jeff Burns)]

What is considered a safe distance to locate a tower from power lines? The
ARRL Antenna book number is 2 times the tower high, but I have seen may
commercial and ammeter tower that would definitely hit a power line if they
fall. What about the insulated wires from the pole into a house? Is it save
to be closer to them?
