Professional Answer: Safety is paramount in overhead power line stringing. Adhering to standards like those from OSHA is crucial. Our equipment is designed to enhance safety and efficiency. To prevent contact with energized lines, the tension-stringing method is a standard practice. This is accomplished using specialized conductor tension stringing equipment such as hydraulic OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners and pullers to maintain a constant tension, keeping conductors off the ground and away from energized parts. Communication is also vital; two-way radios must be used between the reel tender and the pulling-rig operator. Additionally, load ratings of stringing lines, pulling lines, and OHTLstringingequipment.com/Conductor-Grips--Clamps.html target='_blank'>Conductor Grips must never be exceeded, and all equipment, including our wide array of OHTL tools and accessories, should be inspected for defects before each use.
