Accurate tension monitoring is vital for a safe and successful cable pull. As a prominent manufacturer of OHTLstringingequipment.com/Power-Transmission-Line-Stringing-Equipment.html target='_blank'>power line tools and equipment, we can confirm that the following tools are essential for this task:

• Dynamometers & Load Cells: These are the primary tools used to measure the pulling force in real-time. They can be attached to the pulling rope or winch.

• Tension Meters: These devices, often with a running line design, can be installed directly on the cable to monitor tension as it is being pulled. Many modern tension meters feature wireless displays, allowing operators to monitor the pull from a safe distance.

• Pulling Ropes and Grips: High-quality pulling ropes and grips are designed to work in conjunction with tension monitoring equipment and must have a certified load capacity that exceeds the expected pulling tension.

Using these tools ensures that the pulling tension never exceeds the safe limits specified by the cable and equipment manufacturers, protecting your investment and the integrity of the power line. We offer a wide array of equipment for overhead and underground power line projects, including the necessary tools for safe and efficient cable stringing.
