Just be ceratin that the utility requesting the survey will accept the program that you use and that they tell you the safety factor percentage that they will accept. It is true that these programs are very difficult to gather complete data to input. You almost need to be an Overhead Electrical Transmission and Distribution Engineer in order to know all the geegaws that electric utilities use.If you're working with AEP they will give you the software and some field training.
We are currently looking for someone to do 40 miles for us located in eastern Ohio. If interestedsend price, qualifications and past expereince with AEP surveys.
There is some opportunity to develop a business around this but you better know your electrical distribtion ABCs. Good luck
