    I know in the UK this would not happened. A siemens contractor died in similar circumstances to this. We have it written in our safety rules that mechanical earthing devices must be used if they are present. Even if it means earthing through a circuit breaker etc. Taking the last earth off of a line by hand is probably the most dangerous aspect of a substation/linesmans job. Be safe!

      It might be induction but you can still have 100s of amps of circulating currents flowing through the earths. You aren't just breaking volts you are breaking current as well hence why the arc takes a while to extinguish because it's ionizing the air.

    So the nearby live lines caused this? How could they work on the grounded line if it has induced voltage on it?

    • @RaymondNotario
      @RaymondNotario  5 років тому +18

      As long as it is grounded you can work on it, but with the grounds off the induction will get you. The grounds give the induction a path. Alot of transmission lineman have died from improper grounding procedures like removing grounds by hand or taking the grounded end off the structure or rod.

      So the induced voltages appear due to the dead circuit being near live circuits? Can induced voltages appear on underground circuits with insulated/shielded cable, too?

      ​@@astifcaulkinyerasInduced voltages occur through two effects:
      1. Magnetic field coupling (inductive)
      2. Capacitive coupling
      These work over a distance and is little to do with whether a cable is electrically insulated.
      The inductive coupling is based on the magnitude of the current.
      Capacitive coupling is based on the voltage.

    Why dont these big lines have machines cabale of connecting the big cables to ground with big machine ? For example big pole that can attach To the big wire. and have the machine touching the floor creating path to the ground. Thus reducing chances of electricity building up. And as extra percausion have insulated gloves and many ground connections as possible.

    • @RaymondNotario
      @RaymondNotario  Рік тому +12

      this was caused by induction. The line that the ground was being removed from was not energized but the 500K volt transmission line overhead was energized and under heavy load which is why there was this induction from it. Lineman have a saying "It's not dead unless it's grounded" because of this. Many lineman have died from induction.

      ​​@@liam3284He said induction. Induction tends to refer to magnetic induction.
      Coupling can be either inductive or capacitive.
      Second, he said it was under heavy load, that is a reference to the current involved.
      If the coupling is caused by the presence of the current then it is not capacitive coupling, it is inductive coupling as the current creates a magnetic field.
      Current leads to inductive coupling caused by the magnetic field.
      Voltage leads to capacitive coupling caused by the electric field.
      Two different phenomena.
