Safety Equipment for Overhead Line Work

30 November 2022

Your work scenario

A new overhead line is required to replace an existing line to increase capacity for a semi-rural industrial area. The first section of line follows the road corridor which includes a pedestrian pathway under mature trees, and the second section cuts through a privately-owned farm. You are scheduled to be a member of one of two work parties responsible for stringing the new line. Trees have been trimmed along the road corridor section and the line is planned to be de-energised as part of the required work. The weather forecast indicates a high temperature and strong winds are to be expected.
