For the last 13 years, T&D World has profiled apprentice and journeymen linemen, troublemen and field managers in the Lifeline department of the field-focused Electric Utility Operations section. Thanks to a new sponsorship from Milwaukee Tool, the linemen profiled in the magazine starting in September 2020 will receive a tool package from the company.
For example, Milwaukee presented Ray Knott, a troubleshooter for Omaha Public Power District, with an array of different tools to help him with his job as a troubleshooter. In addition, the company donated some tools for his son, who is just starting line school.
If you are interested in being profiled in Lifeline (known online as Spotlight on the Line Trade), email Field Editor Amy Fischbach.
