What will happen to the telephone lines if they are fitted tightly from pole to pole?

When a pole shifts with the earth it will pull the wires apart and cause a break somewhere in the line. The poles are meant to suspend the wires in air, not to stretch them... Accurate answer is the lines will break. While breaking is not normally due to poles shifting, that could happen. The reason the wires are slung loosely is because of the expansion and contraction properties of the metal wires. If you look at the lines in the winter, they do not sag much (are tighter) and in the summer the sag is pronounced (looser). If they were strung tightly, they would eventually break during the cold weather.
