For our 2024 T&D World Lineworker Supplement, we featured the article, "Problem Solvers." To bring a narrated version of this article to life so our readers can listen to this story on the go, we are featuring it as a two-part audio story series for our Line Life Podcast on Podbean.
The first part highlighted Robert Seekell, who has seven patents; the lineworker who invented the Hook Holster and James Coleman of Meta Design Manufacturing and Gabe Dowdy of Pinnacle Power Services. To listen to Part 1, click here.
The second part of this ICYMI series features two lineworkers-turned-inventors: Bruce Thompson of Effective Safety Products, who invented the StepUp to allow lineworkers to improve pole positioning and Tim Barat of Gridware, who worked with UC-Berkeley alums to invent the Gridscope to monitor the grid for faults and wildfires.
