Abstract :
A new antigalloping device for overhead lines with bundle conductors was introduced ten years ago, after laboratory tests and observations on actual 400 kV lines. A systematic full-scale test was performed in Kazakhstan in order to better evaluate torsional damper and detuner (TDD) efficiency. This report details the test station and the results obtained over a several month period of testing and measurement. The tests were carried out thanks to the mutual efforts of the ESSP and the Kazakh Power Research Institute (KazNIIE) at the field tests stand located in Chokpar
