Sag in Overhead Transmission Lines

Sag in Overhead Transmission Lines: While erecting an Sag in Overhead Transmission Lines, it is very important that conductors are under safe tension. If the conductors are too much stretched…

Economic Choice of Transmission Voltages

Economic Choice of Transmission Voltages: It has been shown earlier here that if transmission voltage is increased, the volume of con­ductor material required is reduced. This decreases the expenditure on…
