Abstract
The disclosed technology includes a bullwheel assembly having a wheel configured to rotate about a central axis extending through a center of the wheel and a central hub assembly attached to the wheel proximate the center of the wheel. The central hub assembly can facilitate rotation of the wheel about the central axis. A shaft can be in mechanical communication with the central hub assembly and configured to support the central hub assembly, a bullwheel support frame in mechanical communication with the shaft and configured to support the shaft, and a plurality of removeable liners attached to the wheel and disposed along an outer circumferential surface of the wheel. Each removeable liner of the plurality of removeable liners can have a groove formed therein. The groove can be configured to receive and support various sizes of electrical utility lines.
