Taura ADSS kua tāutahia ki te 10 putu ki te 20 putu (3m ki te 6m) i raro i ngā kaiārahi ā-wāhanga. Ka tautokona e ngā huinga tokotoko patu whenua te taura muka-whatu i ia hanganga tautoko. Kua pūrongohia e ngā ratonga ngā hapa o te ADSS kua tāutahia ki ā rātou raina ngaohiko teitei. Ka puta he tukunga korona tonu i te pito o ngā tokotoko patu tautoko nā te mara hiko teitei i runga i ngā raina tuku. Ka arahi tēnei tukunga ki te pirau o te taura. I roto i ngā taiao poke, ka puta te pirau o te taura i te wā e mākū ana te taura i te kohu, i te tomairangi rānei i ētahi wā. Ko te roa o te ora o te ADSS i runga i ngā raina hiko ka whakawhirinaki ki ngā āhuatanga e whai ake nei:

Hiko

Te pānga o te korona

Te whakapūtanga o te whitiki maroke

Te pānga pūmanawa ātea

Mīhini

Te roa o te whāwhā me te piko

Te taumahatanga o ngā taura

Taiao

Te tere o te hau me te wiri Aeolian

Te hanganga o te hipoki mō te ātete ki te UV (te UV mai i te rā)

Te parahanga me te pāmahana

Kei roto i ngā mara hiko teitei ngā taura muka whatu Dielectric Self Supporting (ADSS). Ka taea te whakararu i ō rātou pūeru ki te arai aho maroke me te korona, inā koa i ngā wāhi tino poke me te iti o te ua, kei reira te taura e rere ana te kawe hiko teitei i runga i te taura, ā, he onge te horoinga ki te wai ua tūturu.

Ka pokaia te uhi taura e te kōrona, te arai porotaka maroke rānei, ka uru te wai, ka pakaru te miro aramid, ka kitea hoki ngā ngongo PBT kei roto ngā muka whatu. I ngā wā tino kino, ka taea e te whakahekenga nui o te kaha ā-ringa te arahi ki te taka o te taura.

Pānga o te Koronā

E tūmanakohia ana te tukunga o te korona i ngā wāhi he nui ngā mara hiko o te rohe e hua mai ana i ngā taha koi, hei tauira, i ngā pito o ngā huihuinga tokotoko-whakapakari o ngā ara iahiko waea tuku. Ka piri ngā huihuinga tokotoko whakapakari ki ngā hanganga raina tuku, ka tautoko i ngā taura, ka whakarato i te kaha miihini hei tiaki i a rātou mai i te piko, ā, ka hurihia hoki ngā taura ki te whenua. I runga i te whakatakotoranga o te taura e pā ana ki ngā ara iahiko teitei, ka taea e te ngaohiko o te ara iahiko me te parahanga i runga i te mata o te taura te whakaoho i te iahiko kia rere i te taha o te taura. Ka puta ake te korona, te mura iti me te arc band dry, inā koa i te taha o te pourewa kei reira te mara-e nui rawa atu. Ko ngā tukanga tukunga ā-rohe ko te tukunga o te UV me te hanga o te ozone me ētahi atu waikawa, ngā matū e whakangaro ana i ngā ara iahiko kua whakarewaina me te papa ADSS.

Te Āwhata Maroke-Rohe

Ahakoa kāore ngā taura ADSS e kawe hiko, ka taea e te poke e kohia ana i runga i tō rātou paparanga o waho te huri i a rātou hei kawe hiko. Ina mākū te paparanga poke, ka huri hei kawe hiko haurua. Ko te nuinga o ngā take o te korenga o te ADSS i puta i ngā wāhi tino poke, i ngā takutai rānei. Ka panaia e te hau mai i te moana ngā pata wai tote ki runga i te mata o te taura muka-whatu, ka kapi te taura ki te paparanga tote angiangi. Ka whakamakukuhia te paparanga poke e te kohu, e te tomairangi rānei, ka hanga he paparanga kawe hiko ki runga i te mata o te taura. Ka puta te iahiko i te hononga kaha i waenga i ngā kaiārahi ā-wāhanga me te taura muka-whatu i te taha o te paparanga poke mākū. Ka maroke te paparanga i tēnei iahiko, ka hanga he whitiki maroke iti. Ka whakamutua e te whitiki maroke te iahiko, ka whakaputa i te ngaohiko teitei puta noa i te whitiki. Ka puta he pewa i tēnei ngaohiko. Ka whakaroahia e te pānga wera o te pewa te roa o te whitiki maroke, ka mutu ai te pewa. Heoi, ka whakamakukuhia te taura e te hauhautanga me te wai tote e peia ana e te hau mai i te moana, ka tīmata anō i te pewa. He āhuatanga ā-wā te pewa whitiki maroke e puta ana i te wā e mākū ana, e poke ana hoki te taura i te wā kotahi.

Ka nui ake te paru me te makuku, ka nui ake te ia whakaputa. Nō reira, i ngā rohe pārūrū, he tino kino te aukume maroke me te korona nā runga i ngā āhuatanga āhuarangi motuhake: he wā maroke e waru ki te iwa marama te roa, ā, ka poto ake te wā ua i te takurua. He mārō, he piri te paparanga paru o te mata o te taura i muri i te wā maroke, ā, he tino matotoru i ngā rohe e tata ana ki ngā kōpiri ka puta he raruraru korona nui.

Me rapu e ngā kamupene ratonga ngā tikanga whakamātautau mō te aromatawai i ngā taura muka whatu ADSS kua tāutahia ki ngā raina hiko o runga. Kei te rangahau tonu ngā whakahaere pēnei i a IEEE, WAPA, EPRI, BPA, Te Whare Wānanga o te Kāwanatanga o Washington me ētahi atu i tēnei take.
