What is the difference between tools for overhead and underground projects?
2025-08-17The main difference lies in the fundamental process. Overhead projects are about tensioning and stringing cables from above, while underground projects are about pulling and laying cables from below.
-
Overhead tools are designed for stringing cables under controlled tension over long spans, often across challenging terrain. The machinery, like OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners and pullers, is built to be powerful and precise to handle the weight and tension of long conductor runs.
-
underground tools are designed for pulling cables through ducts or open trenches. The equipment, such as Cable Pulling Winches and rollers, focuses on guiding and pulling the cables without damaging their insulation as they are laid below ground.
