Electrical design parameters of all-dielectric-self-supportingfiber optic cable

摘要

A lumped circuit model for calculating voltages and currents onnall-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) fiber optic cable near highnvoltage transmission lines has been developed. The model has been usednto show that contamination levels, tower attachment points, relativenADSS and conductor sag and electrical phasing of the conductors arenimportant parameters and must be considered in calculations, especiallynwhen determining the possibility of dry band arcs which could lead toncable damage
