Linemen Ride Power Lines to Install Aviation Warning Balls in Russia ⚡️

Описание: Installing aviation warning balls on transmission lines is a specialized task that helps make power lines visible to low flying aircraft. These bright marker spheres are commonly placed near airports rivers valleys and mountain passes where pilots need clear visual cues to avoid dangerous obstacles. The work often requires linemen to access long uninterrupted spans where traditional tower to tower climbing would be inefficient or unsafe.

To do this linemen use rolling rigs that mount directly onto the conductor and allow controlled movement along the line. The rig supports both the worker and the equipment needed to position and secure each marker ball at precise intervals. Depending on the situation the line is either de energized or the worker is electrically bonded so there is no voltage difference across their body while working at extreme heights.

In this specific video the work is taking place in Russia where long transmission spans rugged terrain and harsh weather make these techniques especially common. Using rolling rigs reduces the need for repeated climbs or helicopter operations and allows crews to complete installations efficiently. While it looks dramatic this method is a well established part of high voltage transmission maintenance and aviation safety.
