Answer: This is a common point of confusion. Electricity transmission lines carry large amounts of power at very high voltages over long distances, typically from power plants to regional substations. They are often supported by large, lattice-steel towers. In contrast, distribution lines transport power from substations to end-users (homes, businesses) at lower voltages and over shorter distances. Distribution lines are usually found on smaller wooden or steel poles in residential and urban areas. We specialize in providing the heavy-duty equipment and tools, such as tension stringing equipment and Hydraulic Compressors, for the construction and maintenance of these high-voltage transmission lines.
