"support demi-arrêt et support d'arrêt"
I found the following explanation for the difference between both types of supports:
"le support est soumis à deux portées différentes (support demi-arrêt) ou (...) le support est tiré d’un seul coté (support d’arrêt)"
Granddictionnaire.com propose "dead-end support" ou "terminal support" pour "support d'arrêt" et élabore sur la définition de "support d'arrêt" : "Support d'extrémité de ligne conçu pour que les conducteurs puissent être ancrés d'un seul côté"

Looking at the ref. I have provided below and comparing with your context, I think this is actually what they are talking about: a 'terminal support' occuring in the middle of a line, where it may be subjected to unbalanced loads on each side.

partial arrest; partial stop, or close down support
Dans mon dictionnaire j'at trouvé des traductions alternatives du mot 'support'. Des unes sont 'support', 'stand', 'media (medium)', 'aid' en anglais. J'ai trouvé aussi que 'demi-arrêt' peut vouloir dire 'partial arrest' or 'partial closure / termination' en anglais.
Example sentence:
support d'arrêt
support of arrest/termination/closure

: This is a technical expression that does not lend itself to a learner-level word-by-word dictionary-based approach. Your suggestions fail to relate in any way to the actual source text / context.

Libby Cohen
: No. The text refers to power generation and has to do with a structural element on a transmission line, not a process.

Background information
Although it doesn't directly address your term, this may give you some useufl background and/or lead to further avenues of research. Note this appears to be US-terminology, I am accustomed to this being referred to as a 'strainer'

'strainer' may in fact be what you need: it is the term given to a 'support d''arrêt' when it occurs in the middle rather than at the end of a line, which seems to correspond to your case here.
