We Stay on Top of Changing Regulations and FCC Rules to Provide Modern Services for an Expanding Grid
From OTMR (one touch make ready) to small cell / macro cell 5G Build-Out, you can trust Volt Power’s Joint Use engineering team to stay on top of modern joint use practices and technological innovations. We manage the design, construction, regulatory and contractual oversight of all third-party telecommunication, cable to commence construction of proposed attachments.
Joint Use by the Numbers
In 1996 floodgates opened when new laws required utility pole owners to consider requests by joint users. Refusals must be based on solid engineering calculations, taking into account all physical considerations and stresses on the poles.
Pole owners have just 10 days to accept or reject joint use applications. Let Volt Power manage every step of the joint use process. From the initial permit application to pole loading analysis to the completion of transfer or construction.
As the demand for electricity and telecommunications grows, the need to leverage existing infrastructure also grows. Volt Power will help you manage this growth.
