The twin moose type of conductor has by far the greatest diameter of any conductor. This allows it to carry more voltage than other types without melting or shorting. Therefore, it is the approved type of conductor for extra high voltage lines.
The topmost conductor in a transmission line is called the guard conductor; it is an earthed (grounded) conductor that links the metal support towers. Its function is to protect the transmission lines against lightning strikes. The coloured balls that are sometimes seen distributed along the guard conductor are intended to make the lines easier to see in those areas where aeroplanes might be flying -they are often seen on lines in the vicinity of airfields. They are also used in areas, such as nature reserves, to make the lines visible to large birds.
Copper is a good conductor and is fairly strong. It generally is not used in power transmission lines due to cost - generally aluminimum is used.
Steel is not used as an electrical conductor because, although it is a conductor, it's not a very good conductor -as is copper and aluminium, for example. A steel-wire core is used, however, to reinforce aluminium conductors on transmission tower lines
Single Circuit PantherACSR Conductor
they are used to reduce the resistivity,owing to the fact that the conductor introduces current into the resistance
220 KV lines used in Kerala have a capacity of 880 Amps
Aluminium is a good conductor of electricity. It is widely used in electrical wiring and transmission lines due to its conductive properties.
Aluminum is a conductor of electricity. It is commonly used in electrical wiring and transmission lines due to its high conductivity.
ACSR stands for aluminum conductor, steel reinforced. This type of conductor is used for transmission lines that are strung between poles or towers. The aluminum is used for its lower resistance, and the steel provides the structural strength.
When a conductor cuts through lines of force (magnetic field), it induces an electromotive force (EMF) which generates electric current in the conductor. This phenomenon is known as electromagnetic induction, discovered by Michael Faraday. It is the principle behind the operation of generators, transformers, and many electrical devices.
The proper term is "cow moose," just like the term "bull" in used for male moose as "bull moose."
Yes, aluminum is a good conductor of electricity. It is commonly used in electrical wiring and transmission lines due to its high conductivity and relatively low cost.

Iron is an excellent conductor of magnetic lines of force due to its high magnetic permeability. This property allows iron to easily attract and retain magnetism, making it a common material used in electromagnets and magnetic cores in transformers and electric motors.
Overhead electrical lines are usually made of aluminum, and some have a steel strand added which is used to give the conductor more strength (not to carry current).
