Students at SDU University in Denmark, presented a fully autonomous self-recharging system for a drone capable of long-term continuous operation near power lines. The drone is equipped with a built-in navigation system that allows it to locate power lines and approach them. A gripper mechanism grips the power line cable, and a control circuit provides the holding force as well as recharging the battery.

Balloon resting on power cables On Sunday June 24, 2018 in Howell Michigan, a festival held hot air balloons. At approximately 8:00 a.m., a balloon lost altitude and the pilot was not able to avoid power lines. When he came into contact with the wires, It appeared a great shine and a part of the fabric in the balloon caught fire. The balloon fell at Thompson Lake a few seconds later and the operator was not injured.

Arcs in electric cables after accident Several arcs created on high-voltage lines after a car collision with power pole. The incident occurred on June 24 in the City of London, in Ontario, Canada.
Electric arc in high-tension cables The electrified high power cables can carry voltage of 1.000 volt residential areas up to 800.000 volts for transport over long distances. But what happens when two such wires touch each other; What we see here is something called "Electric arc." When two power lines come very close together, begin to carry electricity between them, creating a visible electrical discharge in arc shape. It seems to us as a blue light and is a result of ionization of the air environment.
