  • The sag of the OPGW fiber optic cable is too large

    The sag of the OPGW fiber optic cable is too large

    OPGW performs dual roles: Lightning protection (like earth wire). If sag and tension are not correct: Excessive stress may break fibers inside OPGW. Wrong sag can disturb the shielding angle, reducing. Overhead transmission lines are the backbone of modern power systems, carrying bulk electricity across long distances. Before any conductor or OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) is strung between two towers, engineers must carefully calculate sag and tension. Perform sag and tension calculations for OPGW using the two most used software platforms in our industry: Power Line® Systems' PLS-CADD. This manual is formulated in accordance with IEEE 1138 - 2008 and IEEE 524 - 1992, etc. It is composed of AS wire, AA wire and stainless steel tube optical unit. Once the final sag has been achieved, a permanent type dead-end device should be installed promptly, followed by the removal of the tensioning device.
