A. 100-300 meters
B. 40-50 meters
C. 50-80 meters
D. 80-100 meters

Answer: B. D. 80-100 meters

Explanation:

Indian electricity rules:

All-electric supply lines and apparatus shall be sufficient in power and size of sufficient mechanical strength for the work they may be required to do, and, so far as is shall be constructed, installed, protected, worked, and maintained under the standards of the Indian Standards Institution to prevent danger.
For carrying the overhead line, wooden poles, concrete poles, steel poles, and rail electric poles are used.
Which poles are to be used, depends on the importance of load, location, and place, the cost-effectiveness of such construction, including maintenance cost, keeping its profit element in mind.

Wooden poles:

In the earlier period, wooden poles are used for 400 volts and 230 volts L.T. line and 11.K.V.H.T. line in a massive way.
In some cases wooden poles are used for33 kV line.
The cost-effectiveness of a wooden pole is much less in comparison to other electric poles and the expenditure incurred for its foundation is also comparatively very less.
If proper maintenance and treatment are done on the wood, the wooden pole is lost for a long period.
The recommended span in the case of wooden poles is 40 – 50 meters.
The breakdown force is between 450 kg / cm2 and / above 850 kg / cm2.

Note:

Span: Span means the horizontal distance between two adjacent supporting points of an overhead conductor.

As per the Indian Electricity rule in overhead systems, the recommended span of various support poles is given below
