True or False: Arm guys are used when an equal number of large size conductors (larger than 4/0) are dead-ended on crossarms.

The statement about arm guys is indeed false because arm guys are specifically utilized to help support the weight and tension of conductors on crossarms when dealing with larger conductors, particularly when a significant number of them are present. However, the criteria for using arm guys doesn't solely hinge on having an "equal number" of large conductors being dead-ended; rather, it is important to consider the actual load and the tension that needs to be supported.

The use of arm guys is influenced by factors such as the spans of the conductors, environmental conditions, and safety regulations. In cases where the conductors are larger than 4/0 and there are multiple dead-ends, proper engineering judgement will determine if arm guys are necessary.

Choosing false underscores that arm guys are not limited to scenarios involving only large conductors or a set number of them, but are part of a broader set of criteria and considerations in utility pole design and conductor management.
