Case Study in Evaluating Today's Line Rating Techniques

Publication: Electrical Transmission in a New Age

Abstract

Uprating of transmission lines has become an issue of major importance to a large number of the electric utility companies around the world. Various techniques are being used to justify increasing the static ratings on critical lines. How good are these techniques in predicting line clearances and/or conductor temperature? This paper will present information that is the product of a recent field experiment in this area. This experiment was done to evaluate the accuracy of some of the different techniques, which include improved weather modeling and actual line monitoring, on an actual transmission line.
