Electrical design of overhead power transmission lines

A complete guide to the design of overhead power transmission lines Electrical Design of Overhead Power Transmission Lines outlines, in detail, all of the areas of knowledge that electrical and transmission-line engineers and designers need to effectively design and layout transmission lines.

The book covers everything from matrix methods and symmetrical components to transient thermal rating.

Real-world case studies and worked examples from IEEE standards are included in this practical guide.In-depth coverage:Matrix Methods in Network Analysis; Symmetrical Components; Transmission-line Parameters; Power in AC Transmission Lines; Electrical Modeling; Analysis of Power-Flow through Transmission Networks; Voltage and Power Control; Symmetrical Faults; Unsymmetrical Faults; Stability; AC-Corona Effects; Lightning Performance of Transmission Lines; Transmission Line Insulation and Coordination; Ampacity of Overhead Line Conductors
