Abstract A protective roof made of glass-fibre reinforced resin, used for the first time for maintenance work on concrete pylons carrying a 60kV aerial line, provides linemen with the necessary protection against accidental contacts. This roof has proved its worth, and the work, which lasted for 8 weeks, was completed without incident. The following aspects are dealt with in particular: type of work, selection of material, type of support, testing of the equipment before leaving the factory, and work organisation.
