no video does this. The recoil or "shockwave" (if you will) from those dead ends is just surprising. I used them once in Alabama. A word to the wise.....if you have equipment anywhere close when you blast those things, crack the windows a little. The recoil busted the windshield out of our backhoe.
The longest stringing section that we did in Norway was 15 km and it had beside 2 end tension towers 8 ''passing'' tension towers in strining section. I will check did we string longer sections somwhere else in world for 420 kV line.
This is one of the ways to connect phase to string that is connected to tower.
Implosive dead-end joint is used, but in some countrys more usual is compression type.
Norwegians only allow implosive type and I tend to agree with them.
Line is not energized when you do this, but sometimes you have energized line parralel to do one you are working on. So, because of safety reson you use NONEL (short for non-electrical) system.
@maclobindotca : I assume this could be initiated either by switching on the electric power on the lines (while the other end of the load is thin-wired to some grounding point which will release at the time of the explostion) or by a controlled explosion on battery power.
Very exact. This method is used for fixing a splice. A tube around the cables is containing the mechanical fixation. Around that tube, the explosive load package is placed. After explosion, the tube is punched flat and compressed around the fixation to it never will get loose.
@dejwid420 The implosive force "crimps" the aluminum and steel splice around the conductor far better than a traditional mechanical (hydraulic) compression splice.
As for why they splice...well, the standard length of a conductor reel is only 3.2km, so you need ALOT of reels to build a transmission line of any sustantial length.
How The Fuck Does Someone Record this at the right time.

@EvLj3st3r Yup,we use these in Canada (Manitoba) too....the window warning is a well known one. ;)

They are connecting two ends of phase line, nobody has 25 km cable for 420 kV in one piece. This way they insurance that it is well connected.

@giantmidget3
That's not how electricity works. You need to have a potential difference. A bird will only hit one line, meaning there is no voltage present.

@berndpfe Does the electricity running through the lines provide any welding capabilities ??
