How is a risk assessment performed to determine if an Anti-Climbing Device is needed?

2025-08-12

A thorough risk assessment is a key part of power line maintenance and construction. The need for an ACD is typically determined by evaluating several factors, including:

  • Location and Land Use: Towers located near schools, residential areas, public parks, or other high-traffic areas are considered "high-risk."

  • Structure Design: Structures with features that could be used as climbing aids, such as attached equipment, horizontal crossbars, or closely-spaced "H" poles, often require an ACD.

  • Proximity to Obstacles: Any nearby features like fences, walls, or trees that could provide a foothold for an unauthorized person will also necessitate an ACD.

Our ACDs are designed to provide a reliable solution for these high-risk areas, ensuring compliance with safety standards and offering peace of mind.
