Overhead Line & DC Isolation Planning

Safe, Compliant OHL & DC Isolation Planning

RPS provides fully managed Overhead Line (OHL) and DC isolation planning to ensure safe access for works across electrified routes. We prepare accurate submissions, coordinate with ECOs and operational teams, and ensure every isolation is compliant and aligned with your project’s requirements.

Precise Isolation Requests Delivered On Time

Our planners produce detailed isolation requests that reflect the correct work limits, electrical sections and operational constraints. We ensure every submission meets the latest local and national E&P processes to secure safe and efficient access for your teams.

Clear Coordination With Access, Possessions & Worksites

We integrate OHL and DC isolations with possessions, Line Blockages, worksite plans and Safe Work Packs. This ensures all access requirements align seamlessly, reducing delays, conflicts and operational risk.
