Abstract

Electric field distortion emerges around personnel working on live Ultra High Voltage Direct Current UHVDC transmission lines, especially when they move from ground-potential to equipotential positions. Unreliable protection threatens the safety of both workers and transmission lines. The current study investigates the electric field distribution of body surface during live working under transmission lines. To provide safety advice, live working person and tower models were established. The body surface field was calculated in different positions under ±800 kV transmission lines, and the distribution of the electric field was summarized.
