Performance Comparison of Using ACSR and HTLS Conductors for Current Uprating of 230-kV Overhead Transmission Lines

© 2018 IEEE. This work involves performance evaluation of current uprating of overhead transmission lines by using Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR) and High Temperature Low Sag (HTLS) conductors. The test cases are 230-kV, double-circuit, single-bundle and twin-bundle, overhead transmissio...
