Vehicle mounted inspection of distribution and transmission high voltage lines saves inspection time and labor but demands the use of high sensitive tools and some technical considerations such as:

• Operating remotely a camera necessitates use of high quality and precise pan and tilt system - as the Ranger offers. The system is designed with ergonomic considerations to allow full comfort for the technicians.
