How do I choose the correct hydraulic puller and tensioner for an overhead line project?

2025-08-13

Selecting the right hydraulic puller and OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>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 OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>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.
