Regards any support where a Branch line (601-02-10) coming from a different direction connects to a continuous main line on a support or on a junction box underground.
It includes situations where a branch underground cable connects to the main overhead circuit with location:transition=yes help (and vice versa) or loops connecting two or more power systems coming from the same direction.

This value can't be combined with itself and cross to describe several situations on the same support level.

Possible mistakes

Only branch supports combined with branch:type=tap should be carefully replaced by line_management=branch.

Examples

Power

Photo	Location	Tagging	Note
	France	power=tower line_attachment=anchor line_management=branch line_arrangement=horizontal	A side line connects to the main one (the presence of hanging insulator in the red circle doesn't affect this line management situation)
	France	power=pole line_attachment=(suspension)|(anchor) line_management=branch	Two lines cross on a concrete pole with a connection between them two. Then it's a branch
	Austria	line_management=branch	A side cable, probably a private customer connection, connects to a main underground cable in a junction box. There is no reviewed power=* value for them, so currently it will only get a single line_management=*.
