Establishes requirements for newly installed and replacement electric utility poles and transmission towers.

This bill requires New Jersey's electric utilities to install new or replacement distribution poles using the highest-grade wood or equivalent non-wood material of equal quality, and transmission towers using the highest-grade materials permitted under federal standards. The Board of Public Utilities (BPU) must adopt these standards, including penalty schedules for violations, and utilities must report annual compliance publicly. The BPU must reference national electrical standards when classifying poles and towers, considering factors like local weather and engineering practices. This directly affects all electric public utilities installing or replacing infrastructure in New Jersey.
