WHY DRONE INSPECTION
Drone inspection extends visual access to infrastructure that may be difficult, expensive, or hazardous to inspect using traditional methods.
That means:
Inspect more infrastructure.
Reduce unnecessary exposure.
Find developing problems earlier.
Give your crews better information.
Help prevent avoidable failures.
Safer Inspections.
Better Data.
Less Exposure.
USEFUL INSPECTION DATA
Clear Findings. Field-Informed Insight
A drone can capture thousands of images. Knowing what matters in those images takes field experience.
ClearLine combines drone technology with firsthand lineman experience and knowledge of electrical distribution systems. We understand the realities crews face — safety, reliability, access, outages, crew time and equipment failure — and design our inspections to provide information electrical teams can actually use while helping utilities prioritize maintenance, resources and potential risks.
Field Services for Smarter Utility Decisions
Pole & Infrastructure Inspections
Identify pole conditions, hardware, attachments, and equipment through detailed field inspections that help prioritize maintenance, budgeting, and infrastructure planning.
Drone Inspection & Imaging
Aerial imaging helps uncover damage, maintenance needs, and other potential issues in hard-to-reach infrastructure—supporting earlier intervention and safer operations.
Asset Data & Documentation
Delivering field-verified data, photos, and documentation that give utilities usable information across the system—supporting safer work planning, proactive maintenance, efficient operations, and informed budgeting.
SPECIALIZED CAPABILITIES
Advanced inspection when conditions call for more.
THERMAL INSPECTION
Find Problems Before They Become Failures
Electrical infrastructure doesn't always show visible signs of failure. Loose connections, overloaded components, failing hardware and abnormal heat can develop long before an outage or equipment failure occurs.
Our thermal drone inspections give utilities, cooperatives, industrial facilities and electrical contractors a safer, faster way to identify potential problems—without putting personnel unnecessarily in the air.
STORM RESPONSE
Faster Visibility After the Storm
Aerial inspection can help utilities document damaged infrastructure, identify difficult-to-access areas and support restoration planning while helping crews focus their time where it matters most.
What We Inspect
-
Thermal and visual inspection of overhead distribution infrastructure to identify potential abnormalities and areas requiring further investigation.
-
Thermal and visual inspection of overhead transmission infrastructure to identify potential abnormalities and areas requiring further investigation.
-
Identify abnormal thermal patterns around transformer connections, bushings and associated equipment.
-
Capture high-resolution visual and thermal data on critical substation equipment while reducing unnecessary personnel exposure.
-
Identify abnormal heating at connections and operating components.
-
Compare thermal patterns along energized components to identify potential problem areas.
-
Inspection of electrical distribution equipment and infrastructure where access, production downtime or personnel exposure are concerns.
Built for Better Decisions
Good inspection data should make the next decision easier. Clear Line combines consistent field methods, detailed documentation, and practical electrical experience to give utilities a clearer view of infrastructure conditions and help prioritize maintenance, planning, budgeting, and field response.
