I will be talking about transmission lines; what are they, what they do and some
components that are important to know. I will also be talking about some
problems that underground transmission lines have and the reason why we dont
use them as much as an overhead transmission line. I will also be comparting
transmission line with under ground transmission lines.

A shield wire
Spacers
Insulators
shield wire
Shield wires are use to protect the tower from
lighting.
They can sometimes contain fiber optics
communication cables.
Spacers
Spacers are designed to keep the individual
wires in a bundle separated by a fixed
distance, usually 18 inches.
Insulators
Transmission line insulators are devices used
to contain, separate or support electrical
conductors on high voltage electricity supply
networks.
Repairs
Line length challenges
