WHY IS BALLS SEEN IN POWER LINES?
They are to make the high tension wires visible from a distance.
Do you have to encase rigid and PVC conduit in concrete that has high voltage wires from a transformer?
If you are talking about the primary wires to the transformer then yes they have to be encased in concrete.
Can you put low voltage sound wires and low voltage light wires in the same conduit?
noyou can not
What are high voltage electric wires made of?
Primary utility wiring uses an ACSR cable, (Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced). The multiple strands of aluminum wires are wound around a center steel cable. The steel center is used to allow longer spans between poles or towers. Ordinary aluminum wire can not be long spanned because its weight would break the wire. All other high voltage wiring is done with different insulation thicknesses dependant upon what the voltage is. The higher the voltage the thicker the insulation. Insulation of the wires stops when the conductors carry kilo voltages usually above 5000 volts.
What are the advantages of 750Kv high voltage?
A high voltage like 750kV is used in transmission lines because this reduces the current in the wires for a given amount of power. A reduced current will reduce the power lost in transmission (I^2R).CommentFar more importantly than reducing line losses, it reduces the voltage drop along the line which would, otherwise, be enormous!
Why are there sometimes balls on high voltage electrical wires?
The balls on high voltage electrical wires are known as "marker balls" or "aerial marker balls." They are used to make the wires more visible to aircraft, especially in low-light conditions. This helps prevent collisions between aircraft and the power lines.

What is a poor conductor of electricity and is used to coat wires?
In low voltage wires, the insulation factor of the coating determines the wire's voltage rating. A wire coating of cross linked poly vinyl is used as an insulation. High voltage transmission wires uses no coating on the wire
Why doesnt a bird standing on a high voltage wire get electrocuted?
The wires are coated in rubber.
What is H1 and H2 wire means?
H1 and H2 wires are commonly used to refer to the high voltage (H1) and low voltage (H2) wires in electrical systems. H1 wires carry the higher voltage and are typically used for the main power supply, while H2 wires carry lower voltage and may be used for control circuits or secondary power sources.
Do you have to encase rigid and PVC conduit in concrete that has high voltage wires from a transformer?
If you are talking about the primary wires to the transformer then yes they have to be encased in concrete.
What causes voltage drop in a circuit and how can it be minimized?
Voltage drop in a circuit is caused by the resistance in the wires and components, leading to a decrease in voltage as current flows through. To minimize voltage drop, use thicker wires with lower resistance, reduce the length of the wires, and use high-quality components. Additionally, ensure proper connections and avoid overloading the circuit.
What is wrong if your car's high beams work but not the low beams?
check fuses, if good, possibly burnt bulbs or wires, check for voltage at wires.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of such high voltage?
voltage is termed as electrical pressure. when high voltage is applied more is the movement of electrons. hence losses will be less. this is one of the major reason for which high voltage transmission is chosen.secondly due to high voltage the current will be less so as the conductor size
Can you put low voltage sound wires and low voltage light wires in the same conduit?
noyou can not
What needs to be done when you put fiberglass batting around high voltage wires?
What are you considering "high voltage" wiring? If you mean just standard home wiring of 120 and 240 volts then you can put the insulation right up to it.
What are the red balls for on the wires on a tower?
Pilots flying in an airplane can't see the wires and might crash into them. The red balls act like flags to alert the pilots that the wires are there. Good question!
