Abstract
A power transmission line computer-aided design and drafting program is summarized. The program is a sophisticated, user-friendly software package developed for the IBM 286/386 desktop computers and compatibles. The package is designed to aid engineers, designers, and drafters in producing plans and profiles of overhead transmission lines. The interface approach is based on pull-down/pop-up menus, which allow the user to explore the capabilities of the program's command structure with little need to refer to the user's guide. Basic input consists of information regarding terrain, line costs, tower criteria, and line-design criteria. Output from the program's optimized or manually designed line can be viewed on the screen or sent to a printer, plotter, printer/plotter, or to a file. This includes both drawings and reports. A separate report for rerating or upgrading studies of an existing line is provided.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
