RE: Why no corona? AC / DC transmission lines



Original poster: "Lau, Gary by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <Gary.Lau-at-hp-dot-com>

While these HV lines clearly exhibit corona, what I can't figure out is why
the ground under them isn't littered with bird carcasses.  Corona coming
off their little beaks has GOT to hurt should they try to perch on the
lines!  Is it just a case of being too large to perch on?
