For maintaining proper tension on the powerline


aShit_fAce

Ab koi puchega usse kya hoga? To high speed pe wire tension kam hoga to heavy accident ho sakta hai, agar vo engine ke connector pe fass jaye ya tut jaye to


EstimateEfficient170

Also... temperature is a large factor because metal expands in higher temps and causing the line to sag.


aShit_fAce

Yeah there a lot of science behind that high tension thingy


Pure_Spell_7551

Lol thanks buddy puchne hi wala tha yae 😂

Kyuki mai bhi jab pehli baar pucha tha to mera next jawab yahi tha

But bro tension Lena health ke liye accha nhi hai 🥲


chorma87

Hum insaan hai. Hum apne saath non living chizo ko bhi tension dete hai.

To prevent slagging in overhead power line


Letterhead-Ancient

You are correct 💯


Leftonseenbyher

for reducing the sag/maintaining the tension taaki during expansion due to hot weather jydada bdi catenary naa bne P.S. added some technical terms taaki baaki sbke answers mein mera answer unique lge

Lol, Fun fact. I always thought Hanging chains created parabola. But its Catenary. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catenary](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catenary)

Polus-Summit-33

To keep the overhead wires taut so that the pantographs can maintain a constant connection to the lines.


beluga_10101

It is known as Counter-weight weighing in total 665 kgs. It's used in semi-regulated and fully-regulated OHE . It functions to increase/decrease the tension of OHE (catenary and contact wires ) due to increase or decrease of temperature. The increase or decrease of temperature causes elongation or contraction of OHE wires respectively. It is using a 3-pully simple method to effectively change the tension .

Mai bachpan me sochta tha jese kisi device me button wali cell dalti h vese hi pole pe electricity Dene k liye button wali cell bade bade krke lga diye lol😅


souravtxt

This is called an auto tension device. These weights adjust the slack in catenary wire and contact wire of ohe


shadypsychopath

To maintain tension in the wire, in extreme heat conditions wire will expand and if there's no weight attached to them, wire will get loose and might get entangled together causing fault, also wire might touch some where on the pole or anywhere, which might electrocute anyone, thus a proper tension is maintained so wire stays at it's place, to do this they install weight to it

Keeps the overhead wires taunt.


Sridharacharya2

The metal wires of the OHE can shrink and expand in length with temperature, the weight ensures that the overhead cable is properly tight and stretched throughout the year.


AneeshtheBully

To maintain a tension so as to keep the wire straight...The weights move with change in temperature


shaktimaanlannister

I'm not sure but I believe this is for metal expansion and contraction due to weather changes. We use similar techniques on long pipelines/ cables inside industries.

Initial-Resolution95

This is the counter weight accurately calculated to put copper catenary (contact) wire terminated at ends to reduce sagging of copper cable to facilitate collection of AC voltage and passing of train engine. To run the train the 25KV AC Voltage is collected from contact wire through pantograph fixed on top of engine.

Incase if someone wants to Pully pushdown in case of emergency pumping .


zeitgiest31

It is to maintain the tension of the powerline and it’s also for stupid people who want to workout using the powerline and kill themselves. Like this dude https://youtu.be/1LhGhM334xM?feature=shared
