•MINIMISE NO. OF TRIPPINGS AND EXTEND RELIABLE SUPPLY TO CONSUMERS
•PREVENT REVENUE LOSS TO THE UTILITY AND LOSS TO CONSUMER
•AVOID INSTABILITY OF THE SYSTEM
•AVOID DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT
AIM OF EHV LINE MAINTENANCE .

REASONS FOR DAMAGE TO LINE COMPONENTS
A. INSULATOR STRINGS 1) HIGH TOWER FOOTING RESISTENCE .
2) EXCESSIVE AEOLIAN VIBRATIONS 3) DE-CAPPING OF INSULATORS DUE TO POOR QUALITY OF CEMENT
4) HIGH VOLTAGE STRESS ACROSS INDIVIDUAL DISC.
5) DECOUPLING OF INSULATORS DUE TO MISSING / DAMAGED SECURITY SAFETY CLIPS.
6) RUSTING/BURNING OF PG CLAMPS,BOLTS AND NUTS. 7) WEAK JUMPER CONE AND DEFECTIVE CRIMPING .

REASONS FOR DAMAGE TO LINE COMPONENTS TOWERS AND
TOWER
.
MISHANDLING DURING CONSTRUCTION
EXECESSIVE MECHANICAL STRESS
OVER TIGHTNING OF BOLTS & NUTS ON SPACER CLAMPS
DEFECTIVE SPACERS AND IMPROPER SPACING LOOSENING OF GRIP OF ARMOUR RODS
UNEQUAL SHEARING OF LOAD IN BUNDLE CONDUCTOR
DESIGN DEFECTS OF TOWERS AND FOUNDATIONS EROSION OF SOIL AROUND FOUNDATION
INCORRECT WIND AND WEIGHT SPANS OVER STRESSING THE BOLTS DURING ERECTION RUSTING OF STUBS IN SUBMERGED LOCATIONS
INCORRECT CLASSIFICATION OF SOIL

Modern Techniques for Maintenance Of EHV Lines. Line pathology i.e. health diagnostic
methods
Regular detailed line patrolling with digital photography
Testing and system health diagnostic methods
Thermo-graphic scanning.
Measurement of Resistance of electric joint in live line condition
Punctured insulator detection by electric field measurement.
Punctured insulator detection by voltage measurement method
Corona-measurement by Decor cameraTower footing earth resistance measurement

Monkey Patrolling
Monkey patrolling.
Inspection by climbing the tower through inner body of the tower up to upper cross-arm level keeping safe body clearance.

Tools For Line Patrolling
1. Hunter shoes.
2. Hand gloves, uniform, full shirt, Full pant.
3. Helmet, sun cap and goggles.
4. First aid box
5. Binocular / telescope.
6. Stick
7. Torch ,Digital camera
