Function of elevated optical cables
An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite ) is a type of cable that is used in. An OPGW cable contains a tubular structure with one or more in it, surrounded by layers of and. OPGW cables combine the functions of grounding and communication, with a optical fibers in the middle of the conductive cable. It is increasingly utilized in high-voltage transmission lines as a functional element that both safeguards the power system and allows data sharing across the grid. Companies involved in electric power distribution use various types of optical cables for communication, monitoring, and control. The use of optical cables with fiber optics in power transmission lines, from 35kV overhead lines to high voltage lines, is an important direction in the.
