既存電柱M-5はアクセスのしずらいBldg.308裏側の丘の頂上にあります。重機がアクセスできない場合は既存コンクリート柱は再使用、新設電源も架空配線とする事で考慮しても良いでしょうか?

The existing Pole “M-5” is located at the top of the hill behind Bldg.308, which is difficult to access with Heavy Machineries (Cranes, etc.). In the case when Heavy Machineries cannot access the location of the concrete poles, can we consider the reuse of the existing poles and overhead wiring for the new power supply?
