Abstract

This paper deals with an experimental assessment of the performance of different damping systems in controlling wind-induced conductor motions. The damping systems comprised different types of Stockbridge dampers or breteUes used on single ACSR and AAAC conductors as well as spacer· dampers or semi-rigid spacers combined or not with bretelles used on similar triple or quad bundled conductors. All tests were conducted under natural wind conditions at the HydroQuebec test line in Varennes, Quebec.
