SkyWrap is not compatible with preformed-type conductor accessories such as SVDs and BFDs. These must be removed before installing SkyWrap. The preformed-type devices may be replaced by clamp-on accessories such as dog-bone dampers. However, SkyWrap cable acts to disrupt airflow over the host conductor or earth-wire (ground-wire) because of its helical geometry and it may not be necessary to install any additional vibration damping equipment once SkyWrap is in place.
