When guy wires are used to support a pole or tower structure, they can act as a lightning rod electrocuting someone who may be touching the wire then the structure gets hit. To help protect against this, these are used to electrically insulate the lower portion of the guy wire from the upper, (see also 'Guy Strain Insulators'; 'Goat Head'; 'Eggs').
