GETELECTRIC:
with med and high voltage when the cable[s] do fall down and the fuse or recloser will not trip very fast due the ground restance and some case few lines i know of it will not blow the fuse unless get " bolted" or " direct" short then it will trip it.
like example 24 Kv line when it drop and it will keep alive until OCPD go out but the chance it will trip is hard to predict due too many thing around the sisuation there like dry ground it will not trip it at all and very wet ground it might trip but hard to say depending on water itself and when it is wet the chance to get shocked or electruted is greater and of course snow it will stay alive majorty of the time and most poco fuse have very long time delay to blow and i mean very long time to trip depending on how much over current running unless direct short it will trip alot faster
if need more question just drop a line here.
Merci, Marc
