TLRR Bulk Power 220-500kV Project Work Package 1

Wilson reconductored 110 miles of 500kV Bluebird conductor for Southern California Edison Company (SCE).

Due to environmental restrictions, the project’s wire pulls were provided by SCE. These pulls ranged from 3 miles to upwards of 6 miles in length. The project also included a 3-mile reconductor section using 3M composite ACCR conductor. This 3-mile pull occurred over a complex I-10/I-15 interchange for which Wilson coordinated and acquired the California Department of Transportation permits and approvals.

Wilson used two company-owned helicopters for structure access on this project. In total, Wilson pilots performed more than 1,750 flight hours.
