 Drying of billets of supports used in power transmission lines up to 35 kV, currently performed by atmospheric or convective methods, is a responsible stage of their production, requiring a lot of time and energy. At the same time, there are promising technologies of drying, which can reduce the duration and improve the quality of the process at comparable specific energy costs. Drying in the field of high-frequency currents under vacuum may be referred to such technologies, wide implementation of which is complicated by a number of unsolved scientific and technical problems: optimization of the process of vacuum high-frequency drying and ensuring the uniformity of the electromagnetic field in workpieces of large length. The aim of the present work is to consider the mentioned limiting factors as well as to outline the directions of ongoing theoretical and experimental research in the field of vacuum high-frequency drying of long-length wood materials. Consideration of accumulated world practical experience in construction and operation of high-frequency electro-technological complexes using modern results of theoretical research in the future will allow to adapt vacuum-high-frequency technology for drying of capillary-porous materials of cylindrical shape of big length, including billets of wooden supports. If this condition is met, it will be possible to increase their service life, which will have a positive effect on the reliability of electricity distribution networks of consumers at low and high voltage levels up to 35 kV.
