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