What does tying knots have to do with wind energy construction? More than you might think!

The Figure 8 style knot is used by One Energy technicians for taglines when erecting wind turbines, pulling electrical cable in underground conduits, attaching rope to carabiners, and when raising and lowering tools in tower.

In this episode of Technician Talks, join Emily as she demonstrates the basic Figure 8 Knot, plus a few variations. You’ll learn how to tie a Figure 8 Knot, plus a Figure 8 on a Bight and a Figure 8 Retrace, in this short, informative video.
