Transmission Line Construction, Design & Maintenance
Transmission construction and maintenance has been an integral part of Hydaker-Wheatlake’s continued success. We have been building transmission lines since 1962 and have gained valuable knowledge and experience, enabling us to provide the best solutions based on our customer’s needs. We work on voltages from 34.5kV to 500kV with our crews performing over 95% of the work on a transmission line.
