When cold, icy weather strikes, our transmission lines can experience galloping. This occurs when rain freezes to the power lines, and then steady winds cause adjacent lines to move and sometimes contact one another. This can cause an outage. While we can’t prevent lines from galloping, there are a number of ways our engineers try to prevent the impact of galloping lines. Learn more: http://enter.gy/6187rGNcB | Entergy Texas

Galloping lines can cause major issues with power lines and electrical equipment. When wind and ice combine, power outages often follow. That’s because when ice freezes on a line, it forms a teardrop shape making the line aerodynamic and prone to galloping with the wind. When that happens, the lines can slap into each other causing electricity to jump between two lines, damage equipment on the power pole or even weaken the pole itself.

Galloping transmission lines are just one hazard caused by Winter Storm Landon, whose effects have been felt in most of our service territories, including Texas. In this video, the galloping lines were caused by strong gusts of wind in the Abilene and San Angelo Districts of AEP Texas. When freezing rain creates icicles on power lines, high winds can then push the icicles and lift the lines, creating a galloping or jumping motion. | American Electric Power - AEP

Have you ever seen a power line "gallop"? Wind conditions can sometimes cause a phenomenon known as galloping, when lines sway and bounce up and down. If a galloping conductor gets close enough to another energized wire, it can result in power disruptions, or could even lead to damage causing a power outage. If you see galloping or damaged lines, be aware of potential safety hazards and stay clear. | Newfoundland Labrador Hydro
