When we talk about Transmission Lines, think of the large steel towers that carry high voltage powerlines. It's how electricity is transported over long distances to where it is needed. Transmission towers range from approx. 20 - 120 meters high and carry high voltage lines of 132kV, 275kV and up to 330kV. Some may call the Transmission workers, the hardcore electricians.

You’ll receive a Certificate III in ESI – Transmission Overhead and an Electrical Worker's Licence (Restricted).
