For example, our OHTL wire cable conductor tension stringing equipment is engineered to deliver the controlled, consistent force required to achieve the exact sag and tension parameters specified in the manual's design tables. This is crucial for maintaining safe clearances and preventing conductor damage.

Furthermore, our comprehensive Overhead Tools and Accessories are designed for the safe handling of specified conductors, insulators, and hardware. By using our reliable tools, crews can work efficiently, reduce the risk of on-the-job injuries, and ensure that the final constructed line meets or exceeds all the technical and safety standards outlined in their design manuals.

The construction of an overhead power line is a complex, multi-stage process that requires a range of specialized equipment. The essential tools can be categorized into a few key groups:

1. Stringing Equipment: This is the core equipment for installing the conductor wires. It includes hydraulic pullers to pull the conductor into place, hydraulic tensioners to apply precise back tension, and stringing blocks (also known as pulleys) that support the conductor as it's being pulled between towers. These tools are crucial for controlling the conductor's sag and tension, which ensures the line's long-term safety and performance.

2. Lifting & Rigging Tools: For raising poles, towers, and heavy components, you need equipment like gin poles, winches, and lifting slings.

3. Grounding & Safety Tools: These are non-negotiable for worker safety. They include earthing devices to ground the conductors, insulating tools, and various Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

As a prominent manufacturer, Ningbo Changshi offers a comprehensive array of these tools, from hydraulic stringing equipment to a full selection of rigging and safety accessories, providing a one-stop solution for any overhead line construction project.

Selecting the right hydraulic puller and tensioner is vital for ensuring project efficiency and safety. The choice depends on a few critical factors:

1. Conductor Size and Weight: The puller's maximum pulling force and the tensioner's maximum tension must be sufficient to handle the specific conductor being installed. A high-voltage transmission line with a large conductor bundle requires significantly more powerful equipment than a smaller distribution line.

2. Number of Conductors: If you are installing a bundled conductor (multiple conductors per phase), you will need a tensioner with multiple grooved bullwheels and a puller with a corresponding capacity.

3. Project Span Length and Terrain: Longer spans and challenging terrain, such as hilly or forested areas, require more powerful equipment to overcome friction and maintain consistent tension.

Our technical experts at Ningbo Changshi can assist you in selecting the ideal equipment based on your project's specifications. Our products are available in a wide range of pulling forces and tension capacities to meet the demands of any overhead line project, from distribution to EHV transmission.

In addition to the primary stringing equipment, a variety of smaller overhead tools and accessories are essential for both construction and ongoing maintenance. These include:

• Conductor Grips: Devices like "come-along" clamps that securely hold the conductor for tensioning or repair work.

• Swivels and Joints: These prevent the pulling rope from twisting and damaging the conductor during stringing.

• Insulator Lifting Tools: Specialized tools for safely and easily installing or replacing insulators on poles and towers.

• Dynamometers: Instruments used to accurately measure and verify conductor tension, which is a key part of line inspection and maintenance.

An overhead line earth wire, also known as a shield wire or static wire, is a conductor installed at the very top of an overhead transmission tower, positioned above the phase conductors. Its primary purpose is to provide lightning protection for the transmission line. When lightning strikes the overhead line, it will most likely hit the highest point, which is the earth wire. The earth wire is grounded at each tower, providing a low-resistance path for the lightning's high current to safely dissipate into the ground, thus protecting the energized phase conductors below from a direct strike. This helps prevent power outages and damage to expensive equipment.

The installation of an overhead earth wire, while a critical safety step, uses similar equipment to stringing the main phase conductors. The process requires precise tension control to ensure the correct sag and to maintain the specified protective angle. Our OHTL wire cable conductor tension stringing equipment is perfectly suited for this task. The essential tools include:

• Hydraulic Puller: To pull the earth wire between the towers from the beginning of a section.

• Hydraulic Tensioner: To apply consistent back tension, ensuring the earth wire is installed with the precise tension required by the design specifications.

• Stringing Blocks: Specialized pulleys designed to cradle the earth wire as it is pulled along the span, preventing abrasion and damage to the wire's surface.

Since the earth wire is located at the top of the tower, this also requires reliable Overhead Tools and Accessories for safe work at height, such as rigging tools, lifting devices, and safety equipment.

The material and proper installation of the earth wire are crucial for its protective function. Earth wires are typically made of galvanized steel or aluminum-clad steel, chosen for their strength and durability. However, modern systems often use an Optical Ground Wire (OPGW), which combines the functions of a ground wire with the added benefit of housing fiber-optic cables for communication and data transmission.

From an installation standpoint, the earth wire's effectiveness depends on two main factors:

1. Protective Angle: The angle between the vertical line through the earth wire and the line connecting the earth wire to the outermost phase conductor must be kept small (usually 20°-30°). This geometry ensures the phase conductors are shielded from lightning.

2. Tower Footing Resistance: The resistance between the tower footing and the ground must be low. If resistance is high, a lightning strike's current may not dissipate quickly, potentially causing a "back flashover" from the tower to the phase conductors.

Our high-quality stringing equipment ensures that the earth wire is installed with the correct tension and sag, maintaining the crucial protective angle and contributing to the overall safety and reliability of the transmission line.

Even after a power line has been de-energized and isolated from its normal power source, it is still extremely dangerous to work on. This is because the line can become energized again from several sources:

• Induced Voltage: Nearby energized lines can induce a dangerous voltage onto the de-energized line. The longer the parallel section, the greater the induced voltage.

• Accidental Re-energization: Human error can lead to a circuit being inadvertently closed at a substation.

• Lightning Strikes: A lightning strike on a nearby structure can travel through the de-energized line.

Earthing the line protects workers from these risks by creating a low-resistance path for any potential fault current to safely flow into the ground. This protective measure ensures that if a line is re-energized, the resulting short circuit will trip a protective device, de-energizing the line and protecting the worker.

The correct sequence for installing and removing earthing devices is a strict safety protocol designed to protect the worker at every step. This process must always be performed using the proper live-line tools to maintain a safe working distance.

The correct sequence is:

1. Test for Absence of Voltage: Before touching any part of the line, a voltage detector must be used to confirm that the line is de-energized.

2. Connect to Earth First: The earthing device is first connected to a known earth point, such as the tower structure or a ground rod. This ensures the device is grounded before it touches the conductor.

3. Connect to Conductor: Using an insulated hot stick, the other end of the earthing device is then connected to the conductor.

4. Create an Equipotential Zone (EPZ): For maximum safety, earthing devices should be installed on all three phases, and the conductors should be bonded together. This creates an EPZ, ensuring all conductive components in the work area are at the same electrical potential.

Our portable earthing kits and insulated tools are specifically designed to be used in this sequence, providing the highest level of safety and reliability for linemen.

At Ningbo Changshi, we offer a wide range of high-quality equipment to facilitate safe and effective overhead line earthing. Our products are built to meet international safety standards and include:

By choosing Ningbo Changshi's specialized earthing equipment, you are choosing tools that are synonymous with safety, durability, and compliance.

Electrocution is the most severe risk in overhead line work, and it can result from several common hazards. The primary causes are:

• Direct Contact with Energized Lines: This is the most obvious and dangerous risk. Overhead lines are typically uninsulated and can carry extremely high voltages. Contact can occur with a worker's body, or a tool or piece of equipment they are handling.

• Flashover or Arc Flash: You don't have to physically touch a line to be in danger. A "flashover" can occur when a person or object gets too close to a high-voltage line, and the electricity arcs through the air to the nearest conductor, which could be a human body. The required safe distance increases with voltage.

• Improper Grounding or Earthing: A lack of proper grounding can lead to hazardous stray voltages. If a line that is supposed to be de-energized is not correctly earthed, it can become a path for current from a fault or an induced voltage from a nearby live line.

• Equipment Failure or Misuse: Faulty equipment, frayed cords, or tools not designed for electrical work can create a path for current to flow through a worker's body.

Our commitment to safety is why we manufacture durable and reliable equipment. Using our specialized tools, which are designed for the specific demands of power line work, is the first step in mitigating these risks.

Preventing electrocution is paramount and requires a combination of proper procedures and the right safety equipment. The key measures include:

• De-energize and Grounding: The safest way to work on a line is to have it de-energized and then properly earthed. This procedure creates a visible, low-resistance path to the ground, neutralizing any potential for induced or stray voltage.

• Maintaining Safe Clearance: If a line cannot be de-energized, strict minimum approach distances (MADs) must be maintained. Workers must stay a specified distance away from live lines, which varies depending on the voltage.

• Using Insulated Protective Equipment (IPE): Tools and equipment made of non-conductive materials are crucial. This includes insulated sticks, ladders, and tools that are rated for the voltage being worked on.

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): All workers must wear appropriate PPE, such as insulated gloves, sleeves, hard hats, and flame-resistant clothing, as a last line of defense.

Our company provides a wide range of Overhead Tools and Accessories that are built for these precise safety requirements. From portable earthing kits to insulated rescue hooks, our products are designed to help professionals comply with strict safety regulations and protect lives.

While our stringing equipment may seem focused on efficiency, its design is fundamentally centered on safety. Improper conductor stringing can lead to significant hazards, but our equipment helps prevent them in several ways:

1. Controlled Conductor Installation: Our hydraulic pullers and tensioners allow for the precise and controlled installation of conductors. This prevents the conductor from accidentally sagging into nearby energized lines or other structures, a major cause of contact.

2. Minimizing Conductor Damage: Damage to a conductor during installation can compromise its strength, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure later on. Our stringing blocks and rollers are designed with specific groove materials and designs to prevent nicks, scratches, or other damage to the conductor.

3. Use of Non-Conductive Ropes: Our stringing operations often utilize high-strength, non-conductive pulling ropes and pilot lines. This further isolates workers and machinery from potential voltage, adding another critical layer of safety.

By using our high-quality, professional-grade OHTL wire cable conductor tension stringing equipment, you ensure that the line is installed correctly from the very beginning, setting a strong foundation for a safe and reliable electrical grid.

Overhead line construction relies on a range of specialized materials and components that work together to form a safe and reliable electrical grid. The primary materials and components supplied are:

Common types include ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced), which combines the low weight and conductivity of aluminum with the strength of a steel core. There are also all-aluminum and all-aluminum alloy conductors for different applications.

• Support Structures: This includes the poles (wood, steel, or concrete) and towers that hold the conductors at a safe height.

• Insulators: These are devices made from porcelain, glass, or polymers that prevent electrical current from flowing from the conductors into the supporting structures.

• Line Hardware & Fittings: This is a vast category that includes all the clamps, connectors, bolts, and accessories used to attach conductors, insulators, and other components to the support structures.
