Usage

A Termination (461-10-01) regards supports with one or several lines ends with no connection between them to properly ensure safety and insulation on a point of connection on a dedicated support.

A support with location:transition=yes, connecting an underground cable to one of the incoming overhead lines is not a termination, see transition, branch or split instead.

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