This three-day Level 1 class is hosted by FMEA at KUA from August 13-15, 2024. Students will gain a strong foundation necessary to help them advance in the field of line design and staking. This class will include the basic engineering of overhead single-phase lines typically expected of beginning line design personnel.

After completion of this course, participants will be able to complete overhead transformer and service conductor sizing, calculate accurate guy leads for both angle and dead end situations, interpret and implement sag charts in clearance design, and will be able to navigate the NESC in order to locate important rules and tables necessary for safe design. Course manual provided. Students are responsible for obtaining a copy of the 2023 NESC, which may be purchased from IEEE here.
