The material and size of a transmission line conductor are among the most critical factors influencing electrical resistance, and therefore, energy loss. According to Joule's Law (Ploss=I2⋅R), power loss is directly proportional to the resistance (R) of the conductor. Using a material with higher electrical conductivity, such as aluminum, and increasing the conductor's cross-sectional area (making the wire thicker) directly lowers its resistance.

Our OHTLstringingequipment.com/Conductor-Stringing-Equipment.html target='_blank'>conductor stringing equipment, including our hydraulic pullers and OHTLstringingequipment.com/Hydraulic-Conductor-Tensioners.html target='_blank'>Tensioners, is engineered to handle a wide range of conductor types and sizes. By using the right tools to install optimal conductor materials like ACCC conductors, you can significantly minimize power loss on your transmission grid. This is a fundamental step in designing and building efficient power infrastructure.
