One
This one holds only two circuits, one 3 phase 115 KV circuit (on the left) and one 3 phase 240 KV circuit (on the right)

These two circuits do some complicated stuff on these towers. The one in the distance is new, and the lattice tower as you see holds three wires, but you see how the insulators in the middle don't have the wire connecting them, cancelling out the electricity, as it wanted to switch the energized wire from the right to the left, as you see there is a wire connecting the middle wires and the far right wires to transfer the electricity to the other side, and in the tower in the far distance there puts the circuit to a substation.

Nine wires for only one 3-phase circuit? Confused

No, two 3-phase circuits. One 115 kV circuit and one 240 kV circuit.

Cool, I'm a power line fan too. This style is used by LADWP on it's 230kV lines. I have lots of high voltage transmission lines pix.

Can you share any of your pictures? I'm curious.

neat! there are some pylons in Fort Worth very similar to these!
