Experimental Study on Torsional Friction of Stringing Blocks on Conductor in Tension Stringing Construction

Abstract An experimental study was conducted to analyze the torsional friction effect of stringing blocks on the conductor during tension stringing construction. By analyzing the torsional friction force of stringing blocks on the conductor, the torsional friction experimental device of the stringing blocks on the conductor was designed. The torsional friction torque of the JL/G1A-630/45-45/7 Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR) under the different tensions and wrap angles passing through the stringing blocks was measured, and then the friction coefficient was obtained. The experimental results show that the torsional friction coefficient of the stringing blocks to the conductor μ decreases with the increase of the tension of the conductor and the wrap angle passing through the stringing blocks. The relationship between the coefficient of friction and the wrap angle and tension of the conductor passing through the stringing blocks is obtained by fitting, and the formula for calculating the torsional frictional torque is obtained.
