Attaching to BC Hydro poles, towers, and ducts

Are you a business, land use authority, city, municipality or First Nations community looking to attach your equipment to BC Hydro infrastructure such as poles, towers and underground ducts?

We can help with your attachment projects on qualified BC Hydro structures while maintaining public safety and the reliability of our electrical service. With a province-wide presence–including in many remote and underserved communities–our towers provide elevation and reach to support and extend your network.

Communication companies that need to install wireless antennas, telecom cables, and power supply boxes.
Municipalities that require fibre connectivity between municipal buildings.
First Nations communities that want to deploy internet or telephony services.
Any other company that puts their equipment or cables on or in our infrastructure.

Please note that for safety reasons, the following cannot be attached to our structures:

Signs
Cameras
Private lights

New customers must submit a completed Master Services Agreement (MSA) application [PDF, 78 KB], including the details of your organization, your proposed equipment for attachment, and all supporting documentation.

If your proposed equipment meets the required standards and your application is approved, we’ll issue you a Master Services Agreement and you can then proceed to submitting attachment applications. We’ll also issue you a Program Schedule depending on the attachment type.
