Thor Poletest
The Best Non-destructive Pole Testing Solution in use in North America
There are hundreds of millions of timber poles across our networks globally, with an average age of 50+ years. Networks have traditionally relied on hammer testing to inform them of 'pole health'.
This is labor-intensive, time-consuming and lacks accuracy and objectivity.
As an asset owner it is challenging to plan your budget with confidence and to schedule maintenance and upgrades with any certainty.
THOR Poletest™ gives you objective insights into the state of poles in your network. It is fast and easy for engineers to use, enabling you to test more poles, quicker.
​
Thor is available for your teams to use by subscription.
