IEEE 524 puller, bullwheel: A device designed to pull pulling lines and conductors during stringing operations. It normally incorporates one or more pairs of urethane or neoprene-lined, power-driven, single or multiple groovebullwheels in which each pair is arranged in tandem.Pulling is accomplished by friction generated againstthe pulling line that is reeved around the grooves of a pair of the bullwheels. The puller is usually equippedwith its own engine, which drives the bullwheels mechanically, hydraulically, or through a combination ofboth. Some of these devices function as either a puller or tensioner.Syn: puller.
puller, drum: A device designed to pull a conductor during stringing operations.It is normally equipped withits own engine, which drives the drum mechanically, hydraulically, or through a combination of both. It maybe equipped with synthetic fiber rope or wire rope to be used as the pulling line.The pulling line is payed outfrom the unit, pulled through the travelers in the sag section, and attached to the conductor. The conductor isthen pulled in by winding the pulling line back onto the drum. This unit is sometimes used with synthetic fiberrope acting as a pilot line to pull heavier pulling lines across canyons, rivers, etc. Syn: hoist; hoist, singledrum; tugger; winch, single drum.
puller, reel: A device designed to pull a conductor during stringing operations. It is normally equipped withits own engine, which drives the supporting shaft for the reel mechanically, hydraulically, or through a com-bination of both. The shaft, in turn, drives the reel.The application of this unit is essentially the same as thatfor the drum puller.Some of these devices function as either a puller or tensioner.(See puller, drum.)
reel stand: A device designed to support one or more conductor or groundwire reels having the possibilityof being skid, trailer, or truck mounted. These devices may accommodate rope or conductor reels of varyingsizes and are usually equipped with reel brakes to prevent the reels from turning when pulling is stopped.They are used for either slack or tension stringing.The designation of reel trailer or reel truck implies that thetrailer or truck has been equipped with a reel stand (jacks) and may serve as a reel transport or payout unit,or both, for stringing operations. Depending upon the sizes of the reels to be carried, the transporting vehiclesmay range from single-axle trailers to semitrucks with trailers having multiple axles.Syn: reel trailer, reeltransporter, reel truck.IEEE 524 pdf download.
