What are the key safety practices for working with high-voltage overhead lines?
2025-08-12Safety is the top priority for any work involving high-voltage lines. Key safety practices and procedures are designed to protect workers from electrocution, arc flashes, and falls. These include:
-
Lockout/Tagout (LOTO): Ensuring lines are de-energized and properly grounded before any work begins.
-
Maintaining Safe Distances: Always keeping a safe clearance from live conductors to prevent "flashovers," where electricity can jump through the air.
-
Use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): This includes insulated gloves, sleeves, hard hats, and flame-resistant clothing to protect against electrical hazards.
Our company manufactures high-quality Overhead Tools and Accessories that are essential for these safety practices. We provide equipment designed for reliable grounding, insulation, and handling of conductors, which are crucial for every job site to ensure the well-being of transmission line workers.
