It can be referred to as a transmission pole, telephone pole, telecommunication pole, power pole, hydro pole, telegraph pole, or telegraph post, depending on its application.

All timber utility poles are treated using Creosote, CCA or Tanalith E, in order that they are protected from pests, insects and fungi infestations. Timber that is in contact with the ground, such as the utility pole itself, is H4 treated to a SANS 754 standard, while the cross arms will require an H3 treatment. The lesser treatment is due to there being no ground contact
