    How Would You Calculate the Force of a Falling 220kV Conductor?

    Thanks for that! Hard question when you're trying to balance over engineering and costs haha. If our aim is to protect the railway we might be okay with assuming that the whip would occuur at the ends, far enough from the scaffold.Also, appologies, forgot to include a fairly crucial element to...

    How Would You Calculate the Force of a Falling 220kV Conductor?

    Summary: How would you calculate the force at a point of a falling 220kV Conductor? Hi, bit a of a funny one. I need to calculate the force of a cable falling at a point (left edge of a scaffold) as detailed in the attached sketch. (Not to scale what so ever). We’re building a scaffold between...
