TRANSMISSION
Engineering & Design

Transmission engineering requires rigorous analysis, system awareness, and precise execution. Tier 1’s engineering team delivers overhead and underground transmission solutions across voltage classes from 34.5kV to 765kV.

​

We provide full-scope transmission line engineering and design services, including routing and siting studies, structure and foundation design, conductor and shield wire selection, insulation coordination, and thermal and ampacity analysis. Our experience spans line extensions, reconductoring, rebuilds, and large-scale transmission expansions.

​

Tier 1 supports all phases of the project lifecycle—from conceptual and feasibility studies through detailed engineering and construction support. Our designs are developed in accordance with applicable codes and standards, with a focus on system reliability, constructability, and optimized capital investment.
