What tools and equipment do linemen use for working at night?
2025-08-08To work safely and efficiently at night, linemen rely on specialized tools and equipment designed to enhance visibility and safety:
-
Lighting Solutions: This is paramount for illuminating the work area. Essential tools include hard hats with integrated headlamps, portable work lights, and bright, hands-free clampable lights. Our products are compatible with these modern lighting solutions.
-
High-Visibility Gear: Linemen need to be seen by both their crew and passing motorists. They use high-visibility, flame-resistant (FR) clothing with reflective strips and other PPE.
-
Insulated Tools: Just as in daytime work, insulated tools are non-negotiable for working with energized lines. Our range of insulated tools is rigorously tested to ensure they perform safely under all conditions.
-
Voltage Detectors: These wearable devices provide an extra layer of protection by alerting workers to the presence of live electricity.
