Anchor
An anchor is a device, normally made of metal, used to connect a vessel to the bed of a body of water to prevent the craft from drifting due to wind or current. The word derives from Latin "ancora", which itself comes from the Greek ἄγκυρα ("ankura").
Anchor portal
An anchor portal or H-frame tower is a gantry structure supporting overhead power lines in a switchyard. Their static function is similar to a dead-end tower. Anchor portals are almost always steel-tube or steel-framework constructions.
