Any person owning or operating any street railroad using electricity as a motive power
in the city, and moving cars thereon, and the current being conducted for such motive
power by what are generally termed trolley wires or overhead conductors, are required
to construct and maintain guard or safety wires over each trolley wire or overhead
conductor so used. The said guard or safety wires shall be of galvanized iron, and
not less than one hundred and sixty-five thousandth (165/1,000) of an inch in diameter,
and shall be parallel to the said trolley wire, and not less than sixteen (16) inches
above the said trolley wire, and not less than eight inches nor more than twelve (12)
inches on each side of a line drawn from said trolley wire perpendicular to the plane
passing through the two said guard wires. The said guard or safety wires shall be
thoroughly insulated from all current-bearing conductors of the said railroad motor
circuits, and shall be at such places as the Electrical Department of the city may
direct and designate. Any person refusing or neglecting for the period of three months
to construct and maintain such guard or safety wires as herein required, after receiving
notice in writing so to do from the said Electrical Department, shall be deemed guilty
of an infraction.
