Why does some power lines have red plastic balls attached to them?
That is to warn birds so that large flock of birds do not fly into the power lines. Also helicopters.
Since when has fixed capacitor have been seen in use on transmission line?
Capacitors have always been added on both power lines and telephone lines to compensate for the build up of inductive reactance in long runs of wire.
Why are power lines run at high voltages?
Power lines run at high voltages to overcome line loss.
The minimum distance between the declination station and such objects as power lines and electrical equipment is?
Power lines and electronic equipment: 150m
How does ice snap power lines?
The mass of ice forming on the power cables becomes too great for the lines to support and so they snap.
Why are there sometimes balls on high voltage electrical wires?
The balls on high voltage electrical wires are known as "marker balls" or "aerial marker balls." They are used to make the wires more visible to aircraft, especially in low-light conditions. This helps prevent collisions between aircraft and the power lines.
What are those orange balls that are on some power lines?
In some areas they are for preventing the power lines from hitting together and starting a fire. They also increase the visibility of the lines to helicopters etc.

What are the colored balls on power lines usually near water about the size of a basketball?
The colored balls on power lines are a warning indicator for low-flying aircrafts. The FAA mandates their existence as some sources say power line strikes are the leading cause of helicopter crashes.
Waves given off by electric power lines are too to be seen?
The electromagnetic waves given off by high voltage power lines are beyond the visible part of the spectrum.
What are the round ball like structure on the topmost line in power transmission lines?
The topmost conductor in a transmission line is called the guard conductor; it is an earthed (grounded) conductor that links the metal support towers. Its function is to protect the transmission lines against lightning strikes. The coloured balls that are sometimes seen distributed along the guard conductor are intended to make the lines easier to see in those areas where aeroplanes might be flying -they are often seen on lines in the vicinity of airfields. They are also used in areas, such as nature reserves, to make the lines visible to large birds.
With 10 balls make 5 lines each with 4 balls in?
In the shape of a 5-pointed star. Place a ball on each corner and there will be 5 lines of 4 balls
How can you arrange 12 balls in 6 straight lines with four balls in each line?
draw two triangles with overlapping lines
When was Seen Between the Lines created?
Seen Between the Lines was created in 1990.
How do you put ten identical balls on a surface so that you can have 5 lines of balls with 4 balls on each line?
are you talking about human balls? YOU CANT DO IT.
