Technology

The technology we use is the POLUX inspection system where two special insulated probes are driven into the pole at the groundline the most vulnerable point where decay is most likely to occur. These special insulated probes, about 2.5 inches in length, are used to measure simultaneously two critical properties of the pole.


1.The quasi-static insertion force of the double probes from

a constant depth of 2" in the wood.

2.The internal moisture content of the
pole between the tips of the probes at the
same 2" depth. This double measurement approach directly correlates to the density and moisture content of the wood fibers in the strength bearing outer shell of the pole. A hand-held computer then integrates this measurement with five other pole variables: Species, Circumference, Height, Knots and Age in a multi-variate analysis to determine the pole strength and minimum remaining life. The result of the inspection can be downloaded in an Excel based spreadsheet

As the pe*******on resistance in wood is affected by the humidity of the wood fibers, measurement of both hardness and humidity simultaneously enable POLUX to distinguish between good wood which is humid and hard to pe*****te, and rotten wood which is also humid but offers little or no resistance to probe pe*******on. To increase reliability, two such measurements are taken from diametrically opposite points in the pole. Independent tests have shown that the correlation of such a measurement with the actual strength of the pole when tested to destruction is very high

( r = 0.8 , r = 1.0 being the theoretical max.)

Inner-pole is hiring inspection technicians. For more info comment below. As an inspector you will be fiber testing utility poles at the base.

A utility pole is a pole used to support overhead power lines and various other public utilities, such as cable, fibre optic cable, and related equipment such as transformers and street lights. It can be referred to as a transmission pole, telephone pole, telecommunication pole, power pole, hydro pole,[1] telegraph pole, or telegraph post, depending on its application. A stobie pole is a multi-purpose pole made of two steel joists held apart by a slab of concrete in the middle, generally found in South Australia. Electrical cable is routed overhead as an inexpensive way to keep it insulated from the ground and out of the way of people and vehicles. Utility poles can be made of wood, metal, concrete, or composites like fiberglass. They are used for lower voltage power transmission; higher voltage transmission lines are carried on steel transmission towers. -WIKIPEDIA
