Why should a shock-proof hammer be hung on the high-voltage line and what is the function?

Electricity is the most indispensable energy source in our lives. Without it, our lives will fall into a mess, and it is the high-voltage wires that ensure that the electric energy reaches our living places safely. 

In the past, when technology was not so advanced, wires were pulled from the sky to every household, so many small counties still have many cables between houses. In cities, more are buried underground, which can be more secure. 

However, in many heavy industrial areas, high-voltage wires still need to be passed through high-altitude. On such high-voltage wires, you may notice that there are some strange things hanging on them. This thing looks a bit like a sand hammer. Two round spheres are connected to a small pillar like a bone. The scientific name of this thing is called an anti-vibration hammer. 

Power grid engineering is the most important project in every country. If there is no electricity, many projects in this country will be suspended, so almost every country will invest a lot of investment and research on electricity. 

It is inevitable that high-voltage wire racks will encounter many dangers when they are high in the sky, especially natural factors. Everyone must have read many news, saying that in winter, power lines in some areas suffered heavy snowfall and power cuts, and it is necessary to send professional engineers to maintain the power lines. The design of the wire itself is relatively delicate. When it is pressed by a heavy object, it will wear out, and it will also cause the possibility of power failure. Therefore, in many places with low temperatures, additional personnel will be sent to maintain the wire after the winter. Strong winds are even more difficult to control. Snow can be prevented through weather forecasts, but strong winds may blow several times a day. What harm will the high winds do to power lines? 

The most serious impact of strong winds will blow the wires over. After the wires are turned over many times, serious wear and tear will occur in many places, and even leakage and power failure will occur. So some people have thought of scratching the wire with an anti-vibration hammer, and fixing the wire by the weight of the hammer itself, so that the wire will not start to spin as soon as the wind blows, causing problems in the quality of the wire. 

Now that you know the function of the anti-vibration hammer, everyone must also be amazed by the ingenuity of the wire workers? In fact, maintaining electrical wires is still very dangerous. If there is a protective clothing that completely shields workers, our workers will be safer when maintaining electrical wires.
