Discuss Didcot power station 33KV incident 18/08/19 in the Industrial Electricians' Talk area at ElectriciansForums.net

Pete999 - sorry could not reply to you earlier - in a rush last night.

No you are not misinterpreting those stay wires with yellow tubing at their lower ends. That they too vibrate I think is either because the span conductors have been twanged (good word Lucien N) by Messrs Ampere and Lorentz thereby pulling the pylon forward against these stays; or there is an earth fault current through them. I tend to the former as the reason.

Good pictures to show friends and relatives to advise them not to linger under or near power lines.
