Is'nt hazardous to put your setup that close of your power line ?!? Just a thought, I am not an electrician...

Plus you risk your hops to grab your wire and grow on it.
 
not too worried about it I will address the issue when and if it comes to be a problem. I have no other place to put them in my yard so that's how it has to be. I will be trying to focus them away from it. still have to get the twine up
 
I wouldn't be too worried about the power lines unless the hops start coiling around it AND you don't have a tall enough ladder. You could do a screweye in your top post with wire going up and then back down to try and help you guide the growing bines down away from the power line.
 
Looks good. I am not sure where you are but if you get a freeze in the winter you might want to sink the grow boxes into the soil or cover them up really well with mulch.
