Conductor stringing for overhead distribution lines largely follows similar principles to transmission lines but with adaptations for lower tensions and closer proximity to populated areas:

• Slack or Layout Method: For distribution lines, where ground contact isn't always detrimental (especially with insulated conductors or in remote areas), conductors might be laid out on the ground before being lifted and secured.

• Tension Stringing Method: This is the preferred and safest method, especially in urban areas or across obstacles. Using specialized pullers and tensioners, the conductor is kept under constant tension, preventing it from touching the ground, roads, buildings, or other utilities. This minimizes conductor damage, ensures safety, and maintains critical clearances.

• Manual/Small Equipment Methods: For short spans or smaller projects, manual labor aided by lighter winches and gin poles may be used. Safe stringing is paramount to prevent accidents, property damage, and conductor degradation. Our tension stringing equipment is designed to ensure maximum safety and efficiency for distribution line projects.
