Stray Voltage Testing

Accepted Credit Cards







 
Stray Voltage Testing Stray voltage means voltage conditions on electric facilities that should not ordinarily exist. Such incidents are caused by one or more factors, such as damaged cables; deteriorated, frayed or missing insulation; improper maintenance; or improper installation.

PULS offers stray voltage testing and Inspection requirements that are designed to assure that every electric facility is tested for stray voltage. The stray voltage testing is conducted on all facilities that are capable of conducting electricity such as: street lighting, metallic components of overhead distribution and transmission lines, traffic control signals, and related devices and equipment associated with underground facilities.

PULS Inspectors follow an established procedure when a stray voltage condition is found using qualified voltage detection devices.  PULS, Inc. uses hand-held GPS systems that allow Inspectors to confirm the location and/or add additional information for any facility to an existing database.

PULS provides all data/information collected during stray voltage testing to the customer in a format of their choice.

Though its name sounds like an assurance of quality, the fact that data meets Quality Level B standards is no real guarantee that it's suitable for your client's job.

  Testimonial  
 
We have had PULS work on many projects for which we are the engineers and/or surveyors of record. Besides just being pleasant to work with, the PULS people provide timely, efficient and cost effective underground utility locating services. Most recently, they revised their schedule to provide services when our client needed them on a small, one day job. Our first experience with PULS was a 116 acre port property for which we needed a complete utility designation/mapping. PULS put multiple crews on-site to meet the demanding schedule and delivered their product as promised.

I would rank PULS, Inc. as a 3 (Outstanding).
