The subject of the paper concerns fatigue strength tests of aluminum and copper wires in different state of strain hardening used in overhead power lines and railway power lines. The paper attempts to describe operating problems, especially fatigue strength, research methodology, description of a research stand. Based on study results and their analysis, conclusions were formulated concerning the differentiation of fatigue strength of Cu-ETP and EN AW-1370 wires.
