Live – line work is the maintenance of electrical equipment, often operating at a high voltage, while the equipment is energized. These type of projects, due to the dangerous high voltage levels, require expertise in the processes and methods needed for such a project.

The Edison Power Group, with it exceptional overhead and underground transmission capabilities run full range from 69Kv to 500Kv. Edison Power has built hundreds of kilometers of new wood pole and steel structure transmission lines. reconductored and upgraded existing transmission lines and performed live line maintenance and are known as leaders in the field of live – line installations throughout South Africa.

Our state of the art technology isolates energized line from the structure to create a safe work environment. Edison Power utilizes this industry leading technology in conjunction with traditional methods to maintain, upgrade and even rebuild virtually any voltage line or facility without interrupting the power supply. The major benefit of this live line work, is that no new servitudes and tower sections need to be built in order to achieve direct transmission capacity increases.
