A transmission switching system is an essential component of the electricity supply network. It enables electricity transmission from one line to another for end users. It also helps ensure that …
Shackle insulators are one type of overhead insulator used to provide insulation to conductors on low voltage power lines. It is also known as a spool insulator or a butterfly …
What is XLPE? XLPE insulated cable is a cross-linked polyethylene that is insulated with a high-quality aluminum conductor armored cable. XLPE insulated cable material insulation and structure make it the …
The directed flow of free electrons (or charge) is called the electric current. The electric current may be classified into three main types: Steady current (DC Current) Varying current Alternating …
What is Aeolian Vibration? Aeolian vibration is a type of motion caused by wind on conductors and overhead shield wires of transmission and distribution lines. Aeolian vibration is characterised by …
The combination of more than one conductor per phase in parallel suitably spaced from each other used in an overhead transmission line is defined as a bundled conductor. The individual …
