Summary

Galloping is a low frequency high amplitude wind induced vibration of both ice-coated single and bundle conductors. It has a major impact on the design of overhead lines, for both clearances and tower loadings. This brochure is giving an actualized state of the art of the phenomenon mechanisms, its impact, how to control it, as well as new trends to determine galloping amplitudes.
