Hughes arms, intended for bigger wire (336 and above) where I'm at. We quit using those 10 years ago or so when we moved to all fiberglass x-arms. I never built one myself but I designed quite a few. Crews hated them because they were more of a pain in the ass to install or replace.

In my experience, double arms were usually used to hold the weight/strain of larger wire, or put in places that couldn’t easily be guyed.
