Line Design

We design line for the load
you'll be carrying in twenty years.

We model your growth, size the conductor and structures around it, run the sag and tension, and produce the staking sheets and material lists your crews build from. Sized for what the line will actually be asked to carry, with the margin built in while it is still cheap to build in.

What you end up with: capacity you already have, instead of a rebuild you have to schedule.
Choosing an approach

Three ways to approach it, and what each one gets you.

Match Existing Conductor Nearby

Size the new line to match nearby comparable lines. Easy to justify, but that conductor was sized for its load history, not this line's future.

Fits well if: this segment's load profile genuinely matches the lines you're comparing it to.
Size to Today's Peak Load

Size to current peak with little margin. Lowest cost now, but no room for the growth or interconnections likely over the line's life.

Fits well if: load on this segment is stable and unlikely to grow.
Engineering-Led Sizing

Terrain, sag-tension, and load growth modeling size the conductor and structures for the load the line will actually carry over its lifespan.

Fits well if: the line will serve growing or changing load over decades.
How we help

What we hand over, and what it lets you build.

01
Load Growth Projection Conductor sized against where load on this segment is actually headed, not just where it sits today.
02
3D Terrain & Sag-Tension Modeling PLS-CADD modeling that accounts for your actual terrain, not generic assumptions about clearance and tension.
03
Right-of-Way & Clearance Engineering Structure placement and clearances engineered to hold up under real conditions, not just minimum code.
04
Construction-Ready Design Package Documentation your crews or contractors can actually build from, without guesswork in the field.

Let's design a line that performs for decades, not just this year.
