távvezetéks

Távvezetéks refers to overhead power lines used for transmitting electricity over long distances. These lines consist of one or more conductors suspended from poles or towers. The conductors are typically made of aluminum or copper, chosen for their conductivity and relatively low weight. The poles or towers are spaced at intervals to support the weight of the conductors and provide sufficient clearance from the ground.

The primary purpose of távvezetéks is to efficiently transport large amounts of electrical energy from power generation stations to distribution substations, which then reduce the voltage for local consumption. They are crucial infrastructure for modern electrical grids, enabling power to be supplied to areas far from where it is generated. The design and construction of távvezetéks take into account factors such as voltage levels, environmental conditions like wind and ice loading, and safety regulations.

Insulators are used to prevent electricity from flowing from the conductors to the supporting structures. These are typically made of ceramic or glass. Távvezetéks are a cost-effective method for long-distance power transmission, although they are susceptible to damage from severe weather events, falling trees, and accidental contact. Maintenance and repair are ongoing processes to ensure reliability and safety.
