Frequently Asked Questions
When do I need clearance of electrical lines?
If your load is between 5.5 metres and 6.5 metres high, you will most likely require electrical line lifting services, police escort and pilot escort.
The CQ High Loads crew will scope and assess the route and advise of any safety precautions or hazards as well as submit the required applications to the electrical provider.
CQ High Loads has constant communication with all lines of personnel involved during transportation including police, truck drivers, escorts and road users.
Does it depend on where I'm moving my equipment?
Yes, high load requirements do differ across Queensland:
- Brisbane, maximum height 6.1 metres
- Most of Mackay, maximum height 6.5 metres
- Most of Emerald and Bowen Basin, maximum height 6.5 metres
