The paper is intended to describe the transmission line/tower with and without leg extension and the corresponding position on an uneven position and terrain if in all respects suitable to locate and slope stability would likely to be addressed to assess a degree of criticality of a tower. A brief study have been attempted to identify, understand and possible implications thereof and being presented here. Historically, few failure of transmission towers during monsoon at vulnerable locations understood as possible landslide effected being the basis of this study albeit at much later date in a view of broadly inspecting in the light of contemporary practice in the industry.
