Description

Lightning can cause serious damage to power lines. This damage can lead to power outages, blackouts, and financial losses for companies and individuals. To prevent this damage, steel static shields are used. Steel static shields are made up of shield wires that conduct lightning current to the ground. Using overhead shield wires prevents damage to power lines. Overhead shield wires play an important role in increasing the lifespan of the power transmission line and protecting it. Overhead shield wires can have different structures depending on the design of the power lines and weather conditions. To protect shield wires from corrosion, they are galvanized and a coating of zinc metal, which has good corrosion resistance, is applied to the shield wires.
