Analysis on De-icing Methods for 4-bundle 500kV Transmission lines

摘要

In view of the massive transmission lines suffered disaster of ice coating at the beginning of 2008 in south China. In this paper, several typical schemes for the prevention and treatment of ice coating occurred in power networks home and abroad are analyzed. Common melting ice methods can be divided into three kinds: thermal ice-melting, mechanical de-icing and new de-icing. This paper describes a 500 kV transmission line and analyses each of these measures briefly. At the same time, the advantages and disadvantages of various measures and their applications were summarized. At last, the development trend and the research direction were pointed out．
