Wire zone definition

Wire zone means the land located directly under the widest portion of a transmission line. For a horizontal transmission line, the wire zone is bounded on each side by a location on the ground that is directly under the outermost transmission wire or the transmission tower, whichever is wider. For a vertical transmission array, the width of the wire zone shall be determined using the minimum safe distance specified in the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) FAC-003, version three, which is incorporated herein by reference, as amended and supplemented, and available at www.nerc.com.
