GALLOPING CONDUCTORS IN THE SOVIET UNION

, and .
(1986)

Abstract

Galloping of overhead lines is a serious problem in many parts of the Soviet Union because of the long cold winters and the vast expanses of open terrain. The possibility of electrical outage and mechanical damage during severe galloping is a continuing threat to line reliability and continuity of service in those areas. Galloping countermeasures either in use or under test include: aerodynamic stabilizers; inertial dampers; interphase separators; and ice melting facilities.
