The arrival of June and July also marks the start of the plum rain season. Recently, most of the time in Wuxi has been rainy. The plum rain season is characterized by rain and thunderstorms. In this situation, we must pay attention to all kinds of electricity usage! Under these circumstances, we must not ignore it.Copper flexible connectorsActually, during the plum rain season, we need to pay more attention to the safety issues of copper flexible connectors! Copper flexible connectors are widely used in power transmission and distribution lines, and can be seen everywhere in this electrical equipment and non-linear connections: the lines that transmit electricity from step-down substations to distribution transformers or from distribution transformers to electricity users are called distribution lines.

Common distribution line voltages are 0.4kV, 6kV, and 10kV. The 6kV and 10kV lines are called high-voltage distribution lines; 0.4kV is called a low-voltage distribution line. The construction of distribution lines requires safety and reliability, ensures supply continuity, reduces line loss, improves transmission capacity, and guarantees excellent power quality. Conductors are the main components of a line, and their primary function is to transmit current and deliver electrical power. Types of conductors include: aluminum conductors, copper conductors, steel-core aluminum stranded conductors, heat-resistant conductors, insulated conductors, carbon fiber conductors, and aluminum-clad steel conductors. Bundled conductors: For ultra-high voltage transmission lines, this method is used to prevent corona discharge and reduce line reactance. That is, each phase conductor consists of several smaller-diameter sub-conductors, spaced at a certain distance and arranged in a symmetrical polygon.

Since the lightning protection wire is installed at the top of the tower above the conductor and grounded at the base of each tower, it is also called an overhead ground wire. (Direct lightning/induced lightning) Materials: galvanized steel strand, steel-core aluminum strand, aluminum-clad steel strand, OPGW composite ground wire. 10kV lines do not have lightning protection wires; 35kV lines have lightning protection wires installed 1-2 kilometers from the substation outlet; 110kV and above lines generally have lightning protection wires. Insulators Insulators are components used to support and suspend conductors, providing electrical insulation between the conductors and grounded parts such as towers. Types of insulators: rod-type ceramic insulator, suspension ceramic insulator, suspension glass insulator, rod-type composite insulator. Hardware The main types of line hardware include various clamps, connecting hardware, joint hardware, protective hardware, and guy wire hardware. Towers Towers are supports for conductors, lightning protection wires, and other accessories.

The comprehensive and complete basic measures for lightning protection of copper flexible connectors mainly include the following aspects.

1. Cotton roll: The internal structural components of various metals, including antennas, lighting fixtures, billboards, decorations, structures, and senior networks, such as welding, to ensure that in this system, potentials, people at the same potential, and no electric shocks.

2. Conduction: The four corners of the building's roof use lightning rods and a lightning mesh, connected by conductors to circular underground paths that lead to the embedded underground lightning mesh. High-end lightning attractors, lightning rods, conduct powerful lightning currents to the ground.

3. Diversion: From external sources to the conductor, including power lines, telephone lines, and signal lines, parallel surge protectors are connected to the ground, placing overvoltage along the wire, and protecting the computer room equipment and staff through the short access of the surge protector.

4. Grounding: Lightning energy leaks to the ground.

5. Shielding: Surrounded by metal mesh, foil, and shell-and-tube conductors to form a "Faraday cage," it blocks the electromagnetic field of lightning pulses.
