Statistical analysis comparison of HTLS conductor with conventional ACSR conductor

摘要

Increased energy consumption in industrial and commercial sub-transmission networks has considerably increased the loading of transmission lines. In order to satisfy consumer demand, this capacity should be increased. Now a day's ACSR conductor are used for transmission of electrical energy. They can withstand temperature up to 85°C as well as their current carrying capacity is also less. So the, two main ways to increase capacity are by using high-temperature low-sag (HTLS) conductors, and by building new sub transmission lines. To construct new transmission line Right of Way (ROW) is big hurdle due huge rise in land cost. So to replace ACSR conductor by newly developed HTLS conductor is only way to increase transmission capacity and meet today's growing demand. This paper discuss the statistical results that shows high temperature low sag (HTLS) conductors can be used for transmission of nearly doubled electric power in comparison to exacting ACSR conductor.
