Our 30 foot Class 4 CCA Treated Southern Yellow Pine Poles are grown, debarked, and treated in the United States. They are manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specification. 30 ft utility poles are treated to the latest American Wood Preservers Association standards to prevent decay and damage from insects.
Cross arms are available for our Southern Yellow Pine poles as an optional accessory. Configuration and sizing are determined based on project requirements, as well as the height and class of the selected pole. We offer both 8-foot and 10-foot cross arms, our product specialists can help confirm the appropriate size for your application.
Delivery is made with a flatbed truck and the customer is responsible for offloading. Offloading requires a forklift or appropriate similar vehicle to offload – customer supplied. Customer is responsible for any costs associated with delivery rescheduling because of improper scheduling or not having the proper offloading equipment available at the time of delivery.
Pricing: Does not include cost of shipping. Shipping is available to the lower 48 USA states. We can supply a budgetary shipping quote or a firm shipping quote that is good for 14 days to your delivery location.
Disclaimer: LED Lighting Supply is not responsible for improper loading (ie what is mounted to the pole), installation costs, or foundation design of light poles. Dimensions and specifications of poles are subject to change without notice but the pole top and butt dimensions will always be within ANSI specifications. Wood poles are the ideal option for most field projects as concrete poles require more frequent maintenance and replacement. While our main product line is southern yellow pine, we at times are able to offer other species including Douglas fir and red pine. CCA treatment generally will result in the poles being free of insects for decades to come.
Please be advised that our wood poles are covered solely by a 1-year workmanship warranty, which ensures that the poles are free from defects from the manufacturing process, and structural integrity, for a period of one year from the date of purchase. This warranty does not cover damage resulting from external factors, misuse, or normal wear and tear.

Product Overview
This 30 foot wood utility pole is a Class 4 Southern Yellow Pine pole for direct burial installation. It provides 25 feet above grade with a 5 foot buried depth.
The pole is CCA treated and manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications. It is used where a wood pole structure is required for sports field lighting, utility distribution, and related outdoor installations.
Core Performance and Output
Structural performance is based on a 30 foot overall length, Class 4 construction, and direct burial installation. The installed pole height is 25 feet above grade.
Pole weight ranges from 670 to 795 pounds. Minimum top circumference is 21 inches, and the minimum circumference 6 feet from the butt is 29.5 inches.
Minimum top outside diameter is 6.7 inches. Outside diameter 6 feet from the butt is 9.4 inches. Fixture loading, cross arm configuration, and site load requirements must be evaluated for the intended installation.
Adjustability and Control Options
This pole does not include lighting controls or adjustable electrical components. Lighting controls are determined by the fixtures and electrical system installed on the pole.
Optional 8 foot and 10 foot cross arms are available. Cross arm configuration and size depend on project requirements and the selected pole height and class.
Longevity and Reliability
The Southern Yellow Pine is CCA treated to help prevent decay and insect damage. Treatment follows current American Wood Preservers Association standards.
Direct burial sections should be inspected during installation for handling damage. Long-term condition depends on installation quality, soil conditions, and ongoing field inspection.
Build Quality and Physical Characteristics
The pole is grown, debarked, and treated in the United States. It uses Southern Yellow Pine construction with a tapered profile from butt to top.
Total pole length is 30 feet. The direct burial installation depth is 5 feet, leaving 25 feet above grade.
Handling equipment must account for the 670 to 795 pound pole weight. The pole top and butt dimensions should be checked against planned fixture and cross arm arrangements.
Where This Product Fits Best
This pole fits outdoor installations requiring a direct-buried wood support structure and a 25 foot above-grade height. It is applicable to sports field lighting and utility distribution work where project loading requirements align with the selected pole class.
- sports field lighting
- baseball field lighting
- softball field lighting
- football field lighting
- driving range lighting
- recreational field lighting
- utility distribution
The CCA treatment supports outdoor wood-pole use where decay and insect exposure are operating considerations. Final suitability depends on the site conditions, fixture arrangement, and structural loading requirements.
Installation and Long-Term Use
This pole is installed by direct burial with 5 feet below grade. The installation must maintain the specified burial depth and account for the pole weight during unloading, placement, and setting.
Cross arms, where required, are selected as 8 foot or 10 foot accessories based on project requirements. Cross arm selection should be confirmed before field installation.
Periodic inspection should include the exposed pole surface, attachment points, and below-grade transition area. Any fixture or cross arm changes should be reviewed against the installed pole configuration.
How This Fixture Is Commonly Used
For sports field lighting, the pole provides a 25 foot above-grade mounting position after direct burial. Fixture and cross arm layouts are arranged around the requirements of the selected field lighting application.
Utility distribution installations use the pole’s direct-buried configuration and optional cross arm capability. The selected cross arm size depends on the project configuration.
Spacing, fixture arrangement, and pole placement vary with the planned lighting layout and structural requirements. A higher fixture count or different cross arm arrangement can change loading at the pole.
Safety, Certifications, and Warranty
This pole is manufactured to ANSI O5.1 specifications. The wood treatment follows current American Wood Preservers Association standards.
The warranty is 1 year. Installation crews must use handling and setting practices appropriate for the pole weight and direct burial installation method.
