Abstract

A thermal modernization allows increasing the thermal rating of the existing lines. This especially concerns the older overhead lines designed for the +40°C temperature conductor limit. This paper presents reconductoring as the attractive method of existing line thermal modernization. The article provides an overview of issues related to the selection of the HTLS conductor for thermal uprating of existing overhead transmission lines. Some aspects related to the extension of the thermal, electrical and mechanical models used so far for analysis of HTLS conductors are presented in the paper. DOI: 10.12736/issn.2300-3022.2013107
