Installing a Roof Safety Line.

Due to the fact that I have solar panels and a wind turbine generator on my Roof, I wanted a means of securing myself via a body harness. Safety first and always! Read on for how I did this task.

Installing an Eye Bolt.

On one side of the roof I put an eye bolt into a roof support beam.

Clamping the Steel Cable.

I used double u clamps to ensure a slip free hold on the cable.

Securing the Other End.

I used the wind turbine pole to secure the end of the steel cable. Again double clamps for proper installation.

Using the Safety Line!

Wearing my fall protection harness, I can safely work on my Roof now!
