Kansas City Power & Light (KCP&L) uses dynamometers to "sag" 3-Phase conductor recently installed over I-35 just south of Kansas City. Host Utility: Kansas City Power & Light.
Interesting grips. Based on a couple of the clips shown at the start of the video and how the phases bring sagged are handled, I would say this line is de energized. I do not see any grounds though although the phase going over the crossarm lacks line hose and the crossarm doesn’t have any line blankets on it.
Great video! It would be helpful if you linked videos like this with the prior video (the previous day, running the line over the highway.) But the quality of this and your other videos are great, thanks for putting them out there.
Excellent work gentlemen, great information!
Glad to see our hoists and meters are working so well for you. Keep up the good work!

Stay safe out there. Keep the fire in the wire. Hope you guys stay safe on the road.
I always wondered how they tighten those lines just fantastic video
Great work
Great vid
It’s interesting to see the neutral conductor above the phase conductors. Probably for lightning purposes?
Top!!!
Sagging overhead cable ? Right on
Why no insulator discs in the cross arms?
bom
No sleeves! Be careful guys!
Please explain procedure... To attend 220 kv line breakdown
A fucking chart the engineers made up for them. Sag the fucking line and see if it looks good. Nothing beats looks. Looks are 90 percent of the job.
Cannot believe they're not wearing sleeves.
its not a clamp, its a grip nimrod
Doesn’t make sense to wear rubber gloves on something not energized.
You called the foreman out for mispronouncing “dynamometer”, but then proceed to call grips and shoes “clamps”.🧐
