Overhead line stringing projects pose unique risks, primarily accidental contact with live lines, falls from height, and equipment failure. Key safety considerations include:

• Maintaining Safe Distances: Always maintain the specified minimum safe clearance distance from live lines, as advised by the Distribution Network Operator (DNO). A "flashover" can occur without physical contact.

• Fall Protection: Workers at height must use full-body harnesses, secure ladders, and other fall protection gear.

• Equipment Integrity: Regularly inspect and maintain all stringing equipment, including hydraulic OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners, pullers, and conductor carts. Our tension stringing equipment is engineered with advanced safety features and robust design to prevent failures.

• Communication & Planning: A detailed EHS Risk Assessment (Environmental, Health, and Safety) should be prepared for every project. A designated spotter should be used when operating cranes or other tall equipment near power lines.

Our OHTL tension stringing equipment is built for reliability and safety, providing a controlled stringing process that minimizes the risk of conductor breakage or accidental contact with energized lines. We offer comprehensive solutions that help our clients meet and exceed global safety standards.
