Quickly creates a line of up to 40 poles by clicking locations on a map.
If you’ve ever looked at a utility pole—heavy with transformers, crossarms, communication lines, and weather-beaten insulators—you’ve seen a silent feat of engineering. But keeping that pole standing (and safe) is no guessing game. That’s where steps in—not just as software, but as a digital co-engineer for the modern utility world. O-calc Pro Line Design
Using topographic data, you set the attachment heights. O-calc Pro visualizes the vertical clearance (ground to conductor). If a span crosses a highway, you can adjust the sag or move the pole to ensure NESC Table 232-1 clearance is met. Quickly creates a line of up to 40
Once you have a failing pole, O-calc Pro Line Design offers remediation tools without redrawing the entire line. That’s where steps in—not just as software, but
Wind hits the conductors, but it also hits the pole. O-calc Pro defaults to a standard "wind shape factor," but if your poles are covered in thick ice or vegetation, you must manually adjust the "K" factor (drag coefficient). Neglecting this adds a 10-15% hidden load.
