What 送電線工事 do
An English description is being prepared. Japanese description:
主には特別高圧架空送電線の新設や改修に伴う電線架線作業であるが、既設の送電線の点検や保守作業にも従事する。
電線架線作業では、鉄塔に登って電線を鉄塔と鉄塔の間に架設する。鉄塔の高さは10メートルくらいから更に高いものまである。地上では、電線を架線する前に配電線や道路に電線が接触しないように防護足場を構築し、電線を延線するための延線用エンジンと電線ドラムの配置、電線を接続するための電線接続器の準備、碍子(がいし)金具の組立てや取付け、金車やワイヤーロープの配置など、高所作業のための準備作業を行う。
架線作業は通常5~10人くらいの班編成で担当する。班長の指揮にしたがって、まず地上での準備作業から始まり、次に鉄塔上への資材・工具の吊り上げ、金車・延線用ワイヤーロープの配置などを行う。鉄塔上では、電線の延線・緊線、碍子や付属品などの取り付けをする。ペンチ、モンキースパナなどの工具を常に携帯し、作業は安全帽、安全靴の他、高所作業時は安全帯などの安全装備品を身につけて行う。
◇ よく使う道具、機材、情報技術等

What drives the annual growth rate
Projected pay = current pay × (1 + annual growth)^years. The annual growth rate starts from a base wage-growth rate and adds or subtracts labor demand (the job-openings-to-applicants ratio), wage momentum and AI replacement risk for each occupation. Projections are not guarantees. How it is calculated →

Will AI replace 送電線工事? AI replacement risk
How AI is changing this job
A written analysis for this occupation is being prepared.
AI replacement risk compares the parts of a job that are easy to hand to AI or software (processing information, documentation, repetitive computer work) with the parts that are hard to automate (physical work, working closely with people, judgment in unpredictable settings), using the MHLW job tag survey on work activities, work context, skills and knowledge. The result is a relative position among all occupations in the country, scaled to 0–100%. Methodology →
Labor demand for 送電線工事
A ratio above 1.0 means there are more job openings than applicants (a labor shortage). The 5- and 10-year figures are estimates from the openings ratio, wage momentum and AI replacement risk.
