A work platform and helicopter assembly for working on a high-voltage power line such as an EHV power line is provided. The work platform comprises a base of a material to be brought to the electrical potential of the high voltage power line and attachment means for attaching the platform to the helicopter. The workplatform includes a workman supporting portion that extends laterally from the side of the helicopter to support a workman working on a high-voltage power line. The work platform and helicopter are attached in a manner so that they will all be at the same electrical potential when working on the power line. The work platform may include a portion adapted to carry cargo. A ballast is provided on the work platform, at the end of the work platform opposite from the workman supporting portion, so as to maintain the helicopter within the lateral center of gravity limits. |
