An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. An OPGW cable contains a tubular structure with one or more optical fibers in it, surrounded by layers of steel and aluminum wire.

Optical fibers are used by utilities as an alternative to private point-to-point microwave systems, or communication circuits on metallic cables. Effectively, the optical circuits are protected from accidental contact by the high voltage cables belo.

Its genius lies in its dual functionality: it serves as a conventional ground wire (or shield wire) to protect the high-voltage conductors from lightning strikes, while simultaneously housing optical fibers in its core to provide a high-speed data path. An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. Shielding and grounding are essential strategies for managing interference and protecting electrical cables. Generally, cables fall into two broad categories: power cables, which transmit electrical power at relatively high voltages and currents, and signal cables, which carry low-level signals.
