26 B113/01 Compression-type tension clamps, General In order to generate the holding force in the direction of the conductor, compression-type tension clamps use the lateral deformation (circumference compression) of ferrules created by mechanical and hydraulic assembly tools with special compression inserts (fig. 1). In order to deform the ferrules, RIBE uses hexagonal pressing according to fig. 2. Fig. 1: compression-type tension clamps for reinforced conductors (example) This catalog chapter only comprises compression-type tension clamps for overhead lines. For compression-type tension clamps for larger conductor cross sections and the minor tensile stress in switch gears see catalog section B766. Cross section A A aluminium bushing are pressed onto the reinforced conductor Cross section B B steel bushing are pressed onto the steel core Fig. 2: Application of the hexagonal pressing according to DIN , part 4 as for reinforced conductors: the edges of the hexagon are rounded off after pressing.

27 For the construction of the compression-type tension clamps, the conductor has to be cut at the wiring spot and the steel core of reinforced conductors has to be exposed carefully as it is wired seperated from the conductor as a whole. As a result the highest holding forces of different types can be achieved and also reinforced conductors with a high percentage of steel can be wired safely. The conductor connection for the jumper is implemented by means of a branch ferrule which is connected with the flat blade connection of the compression-type tension clamp by 2 or 4 hexagon bolts. As for dead-end tension joints this flat blade connection is missing. While the steel bushings are continuously pressed the pressings on the aluminium bushing have to be put on in the marked distances. In connection with the adhesive lubricant the inner walls of the aluminium bushings are covered with, the axial wiring between the conductor sections, that develop due to the single pressings, ensure the safe transmission of the tensile force of the conductor in the compression-type tension clamp. The compression-type tension clamps have to fulfill the mechanical and electrical tasks according to sheet B110/01. Stand: 11.

29 Please note that the subsequent compression of the steel sleeve must be carried out continuously overlapping acc. to fig. 2. When using compression dies with a minimum width of 20 mm and carrying out crimps overlapping by approx. 5 mm you will need 4 or 5 compressions dependent on the length of the sleeve. After having finished the steel compression the aluminium tension sleeve is to be pushed back, so far that a clearance of 2 to 3 mm is remaining between the end of the sleeve and the stop collar A (fig. 3). The aluminium sleeve must be compressed in the sequence as indicated regarding the lengthening of the sleeve. For compressing the steel sleeve with the aluminium sleeve (crimp 1 and 2) take care that the clevis and the jumper flag are in the right position to each other (fig.3). Pay attention to the existing compression marks on the aluminium sleeve. For reasons of efficiency only large compression dies should be used. The compression of the jumper terminal must be carried out in the indicated sequence as well (fig.4). Stand: 21.

Mounting instruction (replace for Mounting instruction No. 36): Take care for identical code numbers of die sets and sleeves to be compressed. 1. The conductor ends are to be cut carefully and right angled to the axis of the conductor. To avoid opening of the strands the conductor ends have to be secured by wrapping with a PVC-tape. This has also to be done with the steel core after having removed the aluminium strands. The conductor ends have to be cleaned thoroughly to remove contamination, grease and oxide. For doing this, a steel wire brush is recommended (e.g. acc. to sheet B198/1). 2. At the conductor end the aluminium strands are to be removed until the steel core is exposed. The length L of the exposed steel strands has to correspond to half the length of the steel sleeve plus approx. 10% of the overall length of the steel sleeve (see fig. 3). fig Before compressing the steel sleeve, the aluminium sleeve is to be pushed over one of the conductor ends. After this, the exposed ends of the steel core have to be inserted into the steel sleeve until the centre stop is reached. It has to be checked that the clearance a is approx. 10% of the overall length of the steel sleeve. fig Compression of the steel sleeve: - if using mechanical tools (possible for conductor diameters up to 15 mm) butted with dies 5 mm in width, acc. to the marks indicated on the sleeve - if using hydraulic tools ( for conductor diameters > 15 mm) overlapped with approx. 5 mm overlapping (throughout overlapped compression acc. to fig.5) The compression begins at the centre of the sleeve.

79 B130/01 Earth wire connection, General Erdseile schützen die Leiterseile einer Freileitung - vor direkten Blitzeinschlägen und - sie beteiligen sich an der Rückführung von Fehlerströmen zur Erde. Als Erdseile werden Stahl- und Al/St-Seile eingesetzt, die bei einem Erdseil auf der Mastspitze, bei mehreren Erdseilen auf Traversen befestigt werden. Dabei kann die Befestigung am Mast isoliert, mit lösbarem Überbrückungs-Erdungsband zur Messung des Erdübergangswiderstandes (siehe Katalogblatt B135/11 ) oder nichtisoliert erfolgen. Für die Befestigung der erforderlichen Erdseilarmaturen am Mast durch Schraubenverbindungen sind in Deutschland die Anschlußmaße nach Bild 1 eingeführt. Bild 1: Anschlußmaße für die Befestigung von Erdseilarmaturen am Mast Für die Erdseil-Abspannung werden darüberhinaus spezielle Mastkonstruktionen verwendet, die die Anwendung von Abspanngelenken nach Katalogabschnitt B202 zulassen (Bild 2). 1. Erdseilbefestigung am Tragmast Für die gerade Leitungsführung werden zur Erdseilbefestigung Tragböcke mit pendelnder Mulde nach Katalogabschnitt B131 verwendet. Für Winkel-Tragmaste (einseitige Auslenkung) sind die Tragböcke nach Blatt B131/6 vorgesehen, wobei zur Aufhängung des Erdseiles Tragklemmen nach Katalogabschnitt B100 einzusetzen sind. Für große Seilauslenkungen durch Wind an Tragmasten (zweiseitige Auslenkung) werden die Tragböcke nach Blatt B131/6 verwendet. Die Aufhängung des Erdseiles erfolgt ebenfalls durch Tragklemmen nach Katalogabschnitt B Erdseilabspannung am Abspannmast Die Erdseilabspannung auf der Mastspitze erfolgt mit Abspannböcken nach Blatt B132/2, wobei die beiden Enden der Seile (=Stromschlaufe) mit der auf dem Abspannbock befindlichen Verbindungsklemme verbunden werden. Gleichzeitig erfolgt durch diese Verbindungsklemme die Erdverbindung des Seiles mit dem Mast. Wird das Erdseil mit Abspanngelenken an der Mastkonstruktion abgespannt (Bild 2), dann müssen die Enden der Erdseile mit Verbindungsklemmen nach Blatt B135/1 oder Blatt B135/2, oder bei kleineren Querschnitten mit Anschlußklemmen nach Blatt B135/5 mit dem Mast verbunden werden.

143 B160/01 Vibration dampers, General Under certain marginal conditions, conductors get vortex-excited by wind which results in short-wave vibrations (see sheet B10/5). Especially at the intermediate support and the tension support, these vibrations cause alternating bending stress that overlaps the static tensile stress and bending stress in the conductor. Under continuous stress, this may cause damage of the conductor in the form of broken single wires or even broken conductors. Effective protection against vortex-excited vibrations of the conductor can be vibration dampers (provided proper dimensioning and point of installation). RIBE vibration dampers function according to the Stockbridge damper principle. They are combined frictional and resonance dampers that drain a part of the fed-in wind energy from the conductor. Furthermore, the function of these dampers is to obstruct vortex-excited vibrations in the dangerous area. They consist of a damper cable. At the ends of this damper cable damping masses have been installed symmetrically or asymmetrically. A rope clamp that lies between the damping masses transmits the vibrations from the conductor to the damper cable. The requirements and testings for vibration dampers type Stockbridge are stated in DIN EN (VDE 0212 part 3). Indication for every vibration damper is its performance-frequency behavior. In practical experience it has to be reckoned with a broad range of the conductor resonance frequencies of between 5 and 100 Hz. That is why a vibration damper has to be equally effective in this frequency band. By means of the corresponding formation of the damping masses and length of the damper cables, 2 to 4 resonance frequencies can form at the damper whereas the damper efficiency between the resonance frequencies does not decline to severely. The design of RIBE vibration dampers ensures that they boast almost constant damping in a broad frequency band. Here, in general, the frequency range of the conductor vibrations where the dangerous stress occurs is overlapped. As for its properties, the vibration damper has to match the conductor. If that is not the case, damage may occur on the conductor, directly at the point of mounting of the vibration damper, or the vibration damper itself could be destroyed. Therefore, RIBE vibration dampers should not be installed until a RIBE vibration study is present. Things that are determined in this study are: - exact type of the vibration damper - number of dampers per point of installation and - exact point of installation. For that we need you to provide us with the following information: Overhead Line Specification - nominal voltage - number of systems and earth wires - pole list with indication of the span lengths Stand: 14.

152 B170/01 Interphase spacers, General In the case of galopping (see sheet B10/5) the movements of the conductor cables (conductors and earth wires) can cause the cables to smash. This leads to interruptions of the engery supply. At the points of contact it can also lead to severe damage of the conductor cables. The interphase spacers listed in B170 cannot obstruct galopping. However, in the case of galopping, they can obstruct the conductor cables smashing if their assembly in the span has been implemented correctly. The interphase spacers comprise a centerpiece that, depending on the distance between the conductor cables to be separated, either consists of one or several plastic insulators (compound insulators) in combination with aluminum rods. These centerpieces and the conductor cables are connected by clamp structures that have been adapted specifically. From the nominal voltage of 220 kv on, only modified spiral suspension clamps are used for the connection between conductor cable and clamp structure of the interphase spacer. For field control in the section between AUFPRESSKAPPE and the cap of the plastic insulator, and in order to homogenize the electric field along the interphase spacer, FELDSTEUERRINGE according to sheet B363/3 are mounted to the ends of the plastic insulators on the side of the conductor cables (from 220 kv on). The use of plastic insulators for interphase spacers has the following advantages compared to conventional insulators made of ceramics: - minor weight - high flexibility (insensitive to bending stress), - insensitivity to impulsive mechanical stress, - can be manufactured in big lengths as single insulators, - widely insensitive to high-performance electric arcs, - water-repellent properties of the silicone rubber (hydrophobic surface) and therefore excellent insulating properties. The interphase spacers included in catalogue part B170 are samples. As for galopping we support you with suggestions in order to find a solution to your specific problems. We provide you with adapted constructions of interphase spacers and their adapted positioning in the span. Stand: 15.

160 B180/01 Bird flight diverters, General Beim Anbringen von Vogelschutzarmaturen an Hochspannungs-Freileitungen sind 2 Zielrichtungen zu verfolgen: Der Berührungsschutz für Vögel (insbesondere für Großvögel) bei der Landung und beim Start von Mastkonstruktionen von Mittelspannungs-Freileitungen. Das Sichtbarmachen (Markierung) von Leitungsseilen für Vögel beim Flug in der Nähe von Freileitungen (besonders bei Freileitungen > 60 kv). 1. Berührungsschutz Der Berührungsschutz ist vor allem an den Traversen von Mittelspannungs-Freileitungen mit den dort vorhandenen geringen Leiterseil-Abständen erforderlich und hier wiederum insbesondere bei der Bauweise mit auf Traversen montierten Stützisolatoren (Stützerbauweise). Großvögel können mit ihren Flügeln bei der Landung und beim Start an diesen Traversen Leiter unterschiedlichen Potentials berühren und dabei getötet werden. Zu den Maßnahmen des Berührungsschutzes zählen: - Abdeckhauben aus witterungsbeständigem Kunststoff für den Stützer bzw. Stützisolator und das Leiterseil direkt neben den Stützisolatoren. - Schutzschienen aus witterungsbeständigem Kunststoff, die zwischen den unteren Schirmen benachbarter Stützer bzw. Stützisolatoren geklemmt werden und als isolierte Sitzhilfe für den Vogel dienen. - Spiralen aus witterungsbeständigem Kunststoff, die an den Leiterseilen neben dem Stützer bzw. Stützisolator angebracht werden und über dem Isolator einen Bügel bilden, auf dem der Vogel sitzen kann (Sitzhilfe). - Sitzstangen (Sitzhilfe) aus glasfaserverstärktem Polyester, die auf den Traversen befestigt werden und sich über den Isolatoren außerhalb des Gefahrenbereiches für den Vogel befinden. - Büschel-Abweiser aus witterungsbeständigem Kunststoff, die an der Mastkonstruktion befestigt werden und das Sitzen der Vögel auf der Traverse verhindern sollen. - Spezielle Kunstoff-Abweiser, die auf die Endbrennstellen-Elektroden (Hörner) der Schutzarmaturen von Abspannketten gesteckt werden und somit ein Sitzen der Vögel auf den Schutzarmaturen verhindern. 2. Sichtbarmachung (Markierung) Stand: 20. Juli 2006 Pfad: Conductor fittings/bird flight diverters/bird flight diverters, General/ 159 / 164

161 Das Verhalten der Vögel beim Anflug im Bereich von Hochspannungs-Freileitungen ist unterschiedlich: - Kleinvögel weichen den Leitungsseilen nach oben und unten aus und fliegen auch zwischen den Leitungsseilen hindurch. - Großvögel weichen grundsätzlich nach oben aus und können dabei vor allem mit dem Erdseil kollidieren. Deshalb ist es erforderlich, besonders Markierungen am Erdseil anzubringen, um sog. Drahtopfer? weitesgehend zu vermeiden. Zu den Möglichkeiten der Sichtbarmachung von Leitungsseilen gehören: - Anhängen von Greifvogel-Silhouetten, aus rot oder silbergrau gefärbtem Kunststoff, mit abschreckender Wirkung auf die Vögel, - farbige Vogelschutzspiralen aus witterungsbeständigem Kunststoff, die mit ihrem Befestigungsteil um das Seil gewickelt werden und eine sichtbare Kontur für die Vögel darstellen, - farbige Vogelschutzfahnen aus witterungsbeständigem elastischen Kunststoff, die mit einem Spiralstab am Erdseil befestigt werden. RIBE liefert z.z. von diesen Einrichtungen und Armaturen für Berührungsschutz und Sichtbarmachung nur - Vogelschutzschienen, - Vogelschutzspiralen und - Vogelschutzfahnen. Stand: 20.
