This recommended practice provides safety recommendations for the operation of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) that are used to lift and transport material for the construction and maintenance of power grids. The document includes recommendations for UAS operator training, the pre-check of UAS equipment condition, pre-flight environmental assessments, and airspace management. Furthermore, the document describes a method to lift materials, advises on how to notify of abnormal situations, and provides recommendations on keeping flight logs, system management, and on scenarios that need to be monitored.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
P1936.9
Standard for Technical Requirements for Electric Unmanned Aircraft Systems for Power Grid Material Lifting
This standard specifies technical requirements for electric-driven Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) to lift and transport material for the construction and maintenance of power grids. The requirements address lifting and transportation equipment, process, inspection procedures, and testing methods.
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
