bullwheel: A wheel incorporated as an integral part of a bullwheel puller or tensioner to generate pulling or braking tension on conductors or pulling lines, or both, through friction. A puller or tensioner normally has one or more pairs of wheels arranged in tandem incorporated in its design. The physical size of the wheels will vary for different designs, but 43 cm face widths and diameters of 150 cm are common. The wheels are power driven or retarded and lined with single or multiple groove neoprene or urethane linings. Friction is accomplished by reeving the pulling line or conductor around the groove of each pair.
bullwheel puller: A device designed to pull pulling lines and conductors during stringing operations. It normally incorporates one or more pairs of urethane- or neoprene-lined, power-driven, single- or multiple- groove bullwheels in which each pair is arranged in tandem. Pulling is accomplished by friction generated against the pulling line or conductor that is reeved around the grooves of a pair of the bullwheels. The puller is usually equipped with its own engine which drives the bullwheels mechanically, hydraulically, or through a combination of both. Some of these devices function as either a puller or tensioner.
Syn: puller. bullwheel tensioner: A device designed to hold tension against a pulling line or conductor during the stringing phase. Normally, it consists of one or more pairs of urethane-or neoprene-lined, power-braked, single- or multiple-groove bullwheels in which each pair is arranged in tandem. Tension is accomplished by friction generated against the conductor or pulling line that is reeved around the grooves of a pair of the bullwheels. Some tensioners are equipped with their own engines which retard the bullwheels mechanically, hydraulically, or through a combination of both. Some of these devices function as either a puller or tensioner. Other tensioners are equipped with only friction type retardation. Syn: brake, retarder, tensioner. bundle, two-conductor, three-conductor, four-conductor, multi-
conductor: A circuit phase consisting of more than one conductor. Each conductor of the phase is referred to as a subconductor. A two-conductor bundle has two subconductors per phase. These may be arranged in a vertical or horizontal configuration. Similarly, a three-conductor bundle has three subconductors per phase. These usually are arranged in a triangular configuration with the vertex of the triangle up or down. A four-conductor bundle has four subconductors per phase. These normally are arranged in a square configuration. Although other configurations are possible, those listed are the most common. Syn: twin-bundle, tri-bundle, quad- bundle.
