Abstract
Many overhead transmission lines in North America have exceeded their expected design life. It is therefore of interest to estimate the conditions and remaining lives of conductors in order to facilitate maintenance and capital replacement planning. Determining condition or health requires considerable investments. This report investigates whether visual inspection and age are sufficient parameters for estimating the remaining life of this asset. The simple visual and age assessment is quantified by means of Health Indexing. The effectiveness of this simple assessment is measured by comparing it to a condition evaluation that is based on detailed, quantitative laboratory testing. The use of life curves for different geographical regions facilitates the process of determining remaining life. Estimated lives based on the simple and more comprehensive assessments, as well as based on chronological age are compared for different geographical regions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
