Mast 93 of facility 4101 with viewing platform in 2005

The mast 93 on the overhead line Bl. 4101 is a 74.84 meter high guy mast north of Bleibtreusee , which was erected in 1975 by RWE for four 380 kV circuits. Since its construction, it has carried two 380 kV circuits, which lead from the Oberzier substation to the Sechtem substation, and since 2002 the two circuits for the Cologne – Sindorf traction current connection on the lowest traverse.

The mast was provided with a viewing platform accessible via a staircase and was probably the only overhead line mast in the world that was ever equipped with a viewing platform . In 2010 this viewing platform was dismantled because vandalism repeatedly occurred, in the course of which even screws important for the statics were removed.

Today only a concrete slab between the mast feet and a half-timbered structure in the form of an inverted "V" in the mast body at the height of the former viewing platform reminds of this viewing platform.
