What are the key safety considerations and best practices for conducting overhead line stringing operations?
2025-08-08At Ningbo Changshi, we prioritize safety above all. Our equipment is designed to meet and exceed international safety standards. Key best practices include:
-
Pre-job planning: Thoroughly assess the job site, identify potential hazards, and develop a detailed stringing procedure.
-
Proper equipment selection: Always use the appropriate equipment for the specific job, ensuring all tools are in good repair. This includes using hydraulic pullers and OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners with automatic overload protection and braking systems.
-
Communication: Maintain clear and constant communication among all crew members, especially between puller/OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioner operators and ground personnel.
-
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): All workers must use appropriate PPE, including insulated gloves, hard hats, and safety glasses, especially when working near energized lines.
-
Grounding and Bonding: Use proper grounding techniques to prevent electrical hazards. Our machines often feature negative brake systems that maintain line tension, enhancing safety even in the event of power loss.
