Characteristics of Wires of the Long-Operated Aluminum-Steel Cable at Different Places on an Overhead Power Line Span
During operation, cables of overhead power lines (OPLs) are exposed to the impact that differs in separate parts of the OPL span due to the different responses of cables near the clamps and far from them. This paper presents the results of a study of aluminum and steel wires cut from such separate p...

description | During operation, cables of overhead power lines (OPLs) are exposed to the impact that differs in separate parts of the OPL span due to the different responses of cables near the clamps and far from them. This paper presents the results of a study of aluminum and steel wires cut from such separate parts of ACSR cables before and after exploitation. Structural, microstructural, and elastic–microplastic properties of wires and their changes during operation were studied through optical microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis, electron backscattering diffraction, X-ray diffraction, densitometry, and acoustic measurements. The characteristics of the properties of the wires along the span were found to change in a coordinated manner. Numerical estimates of the influence of the steel core on aging the ACSR cable were obtained. Changes in the properties of the wires, as well as oxidization and corrosion of their near-surface layers, were studied in detail. Quantitative values of the characteristics of properties, the most distant from those observed in the new wires, were revealed for samples of aluminum and steel wires cut from the cable at 1/4 span and near clamps. It is assumed that these cable parts should be the most crucial for cable durability. |
