Worn, corroded and damaged watchband springs from a rigid transmission line.

Arcing around this transmission line bullet has damaged this insulator.

Erosion has shifted the supports for this above-ground transmission line. The line shift is causing stress on the line reducer.

Before the jacket was removed, the crushed outer conductor was not obvious. A gin pole crushed the cable.

This elbow joint has signs of corrosion, as well as some metal debris that has collected. In time, the debris will cause problems.
