The Kita-Iwaki Powerline is the largest double-circuit powerline for three-phase electric power in the world. Built in 1999, it runs from Minami-Iwaki switch (Tamura, Fukushima) to Higashi-Yamanashi substation (Ōtsuki, Yamanashi) and has 2 circuits, which are operated at present with 500 kV, but can be switched over to 1100 kV if necessary equipment is installed. The conductors of the lines consist of 8*31.5 mm ACSR ropes providing for a total current capacity of 4000 Amperes. The line is supported by lattice towers with a typical height of 108 meters.
