Ensuring safety and preventing damage during overhead line stringing are paramount for any successful project. At Ningbo Changshi, we understand these challenges and design our equipment to meet the highest safety standards while protecting valuable conductors.

Here are key measures and equipment to ensure safety and prevent damage:

• Use the Right Equipment and Practices: The tension stringing method, utilizing a hydraulic puller and OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioner system, is the safest and most effective way to install conductors. This method keeps the conductor elevated and under control at all times, preventing it from dragging on the ground and sustaining damage.

• Proper Grounding: During stringing, conductors can be subject to induced voltages from nearby energized lines. Proper grounding of all equipment, including the puller, OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioner, and Stringing Blocks, is essential to equalize potentials and protect personnel. We offer equipment designed with designated grounding points for easy and secure connections.

• Utilize High-Quality Grips and Swivels: Using a high-quality anti-twisting Swivel between the pulling rope and the conductor grip is critical. The swivel allows for the release of any rotational forces that can build up during the pull, which could otherwise damage the conductor. Similarly, using the correct pulling grip for the specific conductor type ensures a secure connection without causing surface scratches or deformation.

• On-site Communication and Training: We also recommend clear communication protocols using walkie-talkies and comprehensive training for all staff on equipment operation and safety procedures. Our team can provide guidance on the best operational practices for our equipment to ensure a smooth and safe process.
