What are the common challenges with power line components that can lead to wildfires or outages, and how can your products help?
2025-08-09The most common issues are related to component degradation, environmental stress, and high-impedance faults. We have identified these challenges and have engineered our products to mitigate the risks:
-
Wear and Tear: Aging equipment, such as corroded connections or cracked insulators, can lead to arcing and sparking. Our galvanized steel hardware and high-quality insulators are designed for decades of trouble-free service, even in harsh environments.
-
Vegetation Encroachment: Trees and branches coming into contact with lines can cause short circuits and fires. Our robust line hardware and support structures are designed for maximum clearance and stability.
-
High-Impedance Faults: When a downed line doesn't draw enough current to trip a circuit breaker, it can remain energized and arc for a long time, posing a significant fire risk. Our advanced equipment is compatible with modern grid monitoring systems that can detect these issues and prevent disaster.
