Ii is an important problem for anti-vibration design of overhead transmission lines to master the installation method of vibration dampers.In this study

the aeolian vibration model of transmission lines was designed and manufactured.The vibration response of bare wires and wires with stock bridge dampers was investigated under the action of different tensions.The influence of the direction of the vibration damper head and installation method on aeolian vibration of wires was analyzed and compared with theoretical analysis.The results show that:（1）under the same excitation

the vibration amplitude of wires with installed vibration dampers is smaller than those without vibration dampers.But the vibration spectrum of vibration damper is narrowed with the increase of wire tension

and the anti-vibration effect is reduced.（2）Anti-vibration effect of FR4 type damper is better for 15 Hz-25 Hz excitation band.The damper directions have a greater effect on the wire vibration

and different hammer directions have different anti-vibration effect.（3）The anti-vibration effect of vibration dampers with the hybrid installation is better than that of the common ones.
