Abstract
A linear element (1,61) suitable for extending between, and being supported by, towers of an overhead electrical power transmission system, includes one or more electrically semiconductive components (54, 62) that cause the element to have a linear resistance of 0.05 to 100 Mohms m.sup.-, and which exhibit a negative temperature coefficient of resistance. The element may be a rope used for stringing up conductors of the system or it may be an optical cable. Preferred materials for forming the semiconductive components include carbonaceous fibre tows formed from pyrolised acrylonitrile fibres. The element has a controllable and reproducible resistance for reducing or eliminating dry-band arcing.
