Definition of 'leakage conductor'

The Standard Electrical Dictionary

1. leakage conductor
A conductor placed on telegraph poles to conduct directly to earth any leakage from a wire and thus prevent any but a very small portion finding its way into the other wires on the same pole. It presents a choice of evils, as it increases the electrostatic capacity of the line, and thus does harm as well as good. It consists simply of a wire grounded and secured to the pole.
