This recently reconductored line was transferred to new poles with alley-arm style construction. The conductor transfer was completed with no customer outages and was faster and less expensive than new line construction. Removal of several large hardwoods was required for both the line construction and road widening. GRP Engineering & GHBL&P staff obtained permission from the adjacent property owners and distribution line relocation was completed ahead of the proposed road construction schedule.
Engineering services included:
- Conceptual design & cost estimating
- Distribution line design
- Tree clearing coordination
- Staking sheets
- Layout & assembly drawings
- Material procurement
- Construction staking
- Construction inspection
