Description
This paper, OPGW Grounding Techniques for Safe Fiber Splicing, serves as a detailed resource for electrical engineers, field technicians, and safety professionals involved in the maintenance and splicing of Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) on high-voltage transmission lines. It provides an in-depth analysis of critical safety practices, emphasizing the importance of grounding and bonding techniques to prevent electrical hazards during OPGW splicing operations.
 
While this paper offers a comprehensive guideline and overview of some of the key processes involved in grounding OPGW for splicing, it is acknowledged that each utility may have its own specific standard operating procedures and protocols. This paper is not intended to supersede or replace any existing standards or protocols already in place within individual utilities; rather, it is meant to provide additional information that can complement and enhance current practices.
 
By breaking down technical concepts such as grounding, bonding, and mitigating step and touch potential, along with practical guidance on equipment use and preparation, this paper bridges theoretical safety measures with proven field applications. Real-world examples from two electric utilities are included to illustrate effective OPGW grounding techniques. Throughout the process, they also consulted with trusted UTC technology partners who possess extensive expertise in the field.
 
Whether you are a seasoned professional or new to high-voltage line work, this paper equips you with the knowledge and tools to safely execute OPGW splicing while maintaining the integrity of critical transmission systems.
 
The authors hope that the reader will find the report useful and a welcome addition to their work library.
