An apparatus for providing temporary support for relocating energized electrical conductors comprising: an elongate rigid support arm having a base end and an opposite cantilevered end and adapted for mounting at said base to a conductor tower, wherein said support arm is further adapted for maintaining a substantially horizontal orientation when so mounted to the tower, an elongate crank arm pivotally mounted to said cantilevered end of said support arm, said crank arm having an elongate upper portion extending upwardly from said cantilevered end and a lower portion extending downwardly from said upper portion, wherein said crank arm is pivotable about said cantilevered end between: (a) a lowered position wherein said lower portion is substantially fully lowered relative to said cantilevered end, (b) an elevated position raised from said lowered position, wherein said pivoting rotation of said crank arm about said cantilevered end rotates said lower portion upwardly from said lowered position, an actuator cooperating with an elongate tensioning member to thereby rotate said lower end from said lowered position to said elevated position, characterised in that: a lower end of said lower portion is adapted for mounting to an upper end of an insulator stack wherein, in said lowered position, the insulator stack when mounted on said lower end is substantially vertical, and said pivoting rotation also simultaneously rotates the insulator stack to substantially the horizontal, the actuator cooperating with the elongate tensioning member extending between said support arm and an upper end of said upper portion of said crank arm, said actuator mounted to said support arm, said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) having opposite first and second ends, said first end of said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) cooperating with said upper end of said crank arm wherein tension applied by said actuator via said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) to said upper end of said crank arm draws said upper end of said crank arm in said pivoting rotation about said cantilevered end towards said support arm to thereby rotate said lower end from said lowered position to said elevated position.. an elongate rigid support arm having a base end and an opposite cantilevered end and adapted for mounting at said base to a conductor tower, wherein said support arm is further adapted for maintaining a substantially horizontal orientation when so mounted to the tower, an elongate crank arm pivotally mounted to said cantilevered end of said support arm, said crank arm having an elongate upper portion extending upwardly from said cantilevered end and a lower portion extending downwardly from said upper portion, wherein said crank arm is pivotable about said cantilevered end between: (a) a lowered position wherein said lower portion is substantially fully lowered relative to said cantilevered end, (b) an elevated position raised from said lowered position, wherein said pivoting rotation of said crank arm about said cantilevered end rotates said lower portion upwardly from said lowered position, an actuator cooperating with an elongate tensioning member to thereby rotate said lower end from said lowered position to said elevated position, characterised in that: a lower end of said lower portion is adapted for mounting to an upper end of an insulator stack wherein, in said lowered position, the insulator stack when mounted on said lower end is substantially vertical, and said pivoting rotation also simultaneously rotates the insulator stack to substantially the horizontal, the actuator cooperating with the elongate tensioning member extending between said support arm and an upper end of said upper portion of said crank arm, said actuator mounted to said support arm, said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) having opposite first and second ends, said first end of said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) cooperating with said upper end of said crank arm wherein tension applied by said actuator via said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) to said upper end of said crank arm draws said upper end of said crank arm in said pivoting rotation about said cantilevered end towards said support arm to thereby rotate said lower end from said lowered position to said elevated position.. a lower end of said lower portion is adapted for mounting to an upper end of an insulator stack wherein, in said lowered position, the insulator stack when mounted on said lower end is substantially vertical, and said pivoting rotation also simultaneously rotates the insulator stack to substantially the horizontal, the actuator cooperating with the elongate tensioning member extending between said support arm and an upper end of said upper portion of said crank arm, said actuator mounted to said support arm, said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) having opposite first and second ends, said first end of said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) cooperating with said upper end of said crank arm wherein tension applied by said actuator via said tensioning member (22; 22, 40) to said upper end of said crank arm draws said upper end of said crank arm in said pivoting rotation about said cantilevered end towards said support arm to thereby rotate said lower end from said lowered position to said elevated position..
