Bucket Trucks in the Electric Power Distribution Industry
Bucket trucks for the electric utility industry are built to handle the specific needs of fleets that build, maintain and repair networks of overhead power cabling across the country. Because most electric power is delivered through overhead means, insulated aerial lifts provide linemen safe access to the distribution lines they must manage and maintain. Versalift offers the safest and most reliable insulated bucket trucks in the industry.

Challenges Facing the Power Distribution Industry
The electric power distribution industry faces several challenges. Growing demand from customers and heavy investment in upgrading existing aging infrastructure are two major hurdles. Investor-owned utilities, electric co-ops, government organizations and other organizations are investing billions of dollars in improvements to electric utility distribution infrastructure. With the onus on electric utility distribution companies to improve their efficiency and lower costs, fleet managers need to make sure they purchase or lease the bucket trucks that will help their organizations continue to safely do just that.
