Is the power transmission and communication optical cable grounded
An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. Traditionally, power transmission systems relied on separate grounding wires, which were effective but lacked the communication capabilities needed in today's interconnected world. It is increasingly utilized in high-voltage transmission lines as a functional element that both safeguards the power system and allows data sharing across the grid.
