 Part 2 – Attributes and Recommendations

Location# Attributes Recommendations

1-) Arcing horn (absent)
1 2-) Guard ring (absent)
If flash-over occur at insulator then it may
damage the insulator. So pair of arcing horn
protect the insulator from damage. But if
arcing horn and guard ring pair is used then it
gives two benefits; protect insulator also
prevent leakage current.

1-) Arcing horn (absent) The tree below the transmission

2 line is one of the cause of
2-) tree
corona loss. After 1 year or 2
years its height may reach near
to the lowest conductor; tree
provide the path to ground the
current. So audit after every 6
months is necessary.

Location# Attributes Recommendations

The vibration in conductor due to wind and

1-) Arcing horn (absent) storm may damage the conductor. So
3 2-) damper (absent) damper must be there to protect the
3-) Earth wire (absent) conductor.

1-) Earth wire (absent) Earth wire protect the

4 2-) Arcing horn (absent) phase conductor from
damage when flash-over
occur. Therefore it is
recommended to use
earth wire
