Corona discharges form at the surface of a transmission line conductor when the electric-field intensity on the conductor surface exceeds the breakdown strength of air. In order to decrease the electric-field intensity on the conductor surface, a new 6 conductor bundle has been studied. This bundle, hybrid conductor bundle, consists of using a larger subconductor at the bottom two conductor positions in the 6-conductor bundles of each phase of the line. The electric field on these two larger subconductors is reduced which in turn reduces the corona noise. It is shown that this is a better solution for decreasing the electric-field intensity than ether the conventional bundle or the asymmetric bundle proposed by EPRI.

Copper is widely used in electric wire, cable, conductor in electric devices. As the demand for electric power is increasing rapidly, electric power devices are getting amazingly bigger and complicated. The using of light-weight conductor can reduce the size and making cost of the electric devices. In high-frequency application, Electric current in a conductor tends to shift to the surface of the conductor, resulting in an uneven current distribution in the inner conductor. In the extreme case the current may essentially concentrate in the 'skin' of the inner conductor as a surface current. In high frequency application, therefore, inner area of copper conductor may replace with aluminum conductor, which reduces the weight of conductor. This paper describes the manufacture and evaluation of composite conductors made of copper and aluminum. The optimum extruding ratio was 16 at $300^{\circ}C$. The electrical resistance of manufactured composite bus bar was $57{\mu}{\Omega}$ at DC and $49.5{\mu}\{Omega}$ at 300Hz.

This paper describes that the evaluation on operation practicality of Al conductor cable will be used instead of Cu conductor cable. Analysis is divided into two kinds of cases as transmission and distribution. To evaluate that Al conductor line has the insulation strength indeed safely, various analysis and calculation such as single line-to-ground fault current, lightning surge and allowance current were carried. Model was established based on real combined transmission and distribution is being used in utility with EMTP. The analysis results on Al and Cu conductor line were compared each other. It was proved that Al conductor line can be operated instead of Cu conductor line without special insulation problem in transmission and distribution, in electrical view point such as overvoltage and allowance current.

New conductor is developed by using high strength nonmagnetic steel(NM) wire as the core of overhead conductor This conductor is called ACNR overhead conductor(Aluminum Conductor Nonmagnetic Steel Reinforced). Formed by the combination of aluminum alloy wire and high strength nonmagnetic steel wire, it has about the same weight and diameter as conventional ACSR overhead conductor. To enhance properties beneficial in an electrical and mechanical conductor during the Process of high strength nonmagnetic steel wire, we made a large number of improvements and modifications in the working process, aluminum cladded method, and other process. ACNR overhead conductor, we successfully developed, has mechanical and electrical properties as good as or even better than conventional galvanized wire. Microstructure of raw material NM wire was austenite and then deformed martensite after drawing process. Strength at room temperature is about $180kgf/mm^2\~200kgf/mm^2$. The conductivity at 0.78 mm thickness of Aluminum cladded M wire is about $7\%$ IACS higher than $20\%$IACS of HC wire used as core of commercial ACSR overhead conductor. The corrosion resistance is about 3 times higher than that of HC wire.

본 논문에서는 finite-extent backed conductor를 가지는 CPW(Coplanar waveguide) 방향성 결합기에서, 방향성의 향상을 위해 backed conductor의 가운데 부분을 적절한 길이로 제거하는 보상구조를 제안하였다. backed conductor의 가운데 부분이 적절한 길이를 가지고 제거될 경우, 결합기의 가운데 부분에서 기 모드의 유효 유전율이 크게 감소하여 전기적 길이가 달라지므로, 우 모드와 기 모드의 위상속도가 동일하게 인식된다. 따라서 결합기의 방향성은 향상이 되며, 이때 제거된 backed conductor의 적절한 길이는 결합기의 기 모드와 우 모드의 관계로부터 구하여질 수 있다. 이 보상 구조가 효과적임을 보이기 위해 1 GHz의 중심주파수를 가지는 보통의 결합도를 갖는 CPW 방향성 결합기를 설계하였으며, 기존의 구조에 비해 모의실험과 측정에서 각각 36 dB, 20 dB이상 개선된 우수한 방향성특성과 함께 우수한 정합특성을 가짐을 확인하였다.

This paper variation of stranded cable conductor with CIP(Cold Isostatic Press) technology. Conductor as cable material takes majority costs. Thus many experiments have been done on conductor compaction. The core technology is to maintain the resistance of circular stranded conductor after compaction process, while reducing the weight of conductor diameter, but by increasing filling factor. Testing by varying the compaction ratio using 300SQ conductor, conductor after CIP process shows lower resistance rather than conductor before CIP process.

The authors have published several technical reports on the deterioration of conductor due to forest fire in series so far. This is because even we have been experiencing hundreds of forest fires every year, no systematic research on conductor which is very vulnerable to fire have been fulfilled. This paper describes the sag-tension behavior of conductor under loading current normally when only partial area of a long conductor is exposed to fire. Temperatures of Overhead Conductor were different with measurement position. When the partial area of conductor was heated up to $500^{\circ}C$, 20 % of permanent tension loss was observed. This results in the increase of sag of 1.5 m when span is 300 m. The other results will be presented in the text.

This paper describes mechanical and electric properties of ACSR $410\;mm^2$ conductor from many of older overhead conductor. Samples of conductors itemized two division according to operation sector, green area, salt and pollution area. Samples of conductors operated various environment conditions have undergone laboratory metallurigical investigation and tensile strength torsional ductility and electrical performance. The steel core were found to have retained their original properties to a large degree in both tensile strength and the number of turns to failure. On the other hand the aluminum conductor showed reductions in tensile strength. To determine the remaining useful life of aged conductor, an unacceptable deterioration level has to established for each diagnostic procedure.

This paper describes the corona characteristics of conductor bundle for EHV transmission line. To reduce the corona noise, the asymmetric conductor bundle to minimize the electric field of the conductor surface is proposed. The charge simulation method is used to formulate the electric field of conductor surface and the optimal arrangement of subconductor to minimize it is selected to apply the nonlinear successive quadratic programming. Through the analytical comparison and the corona cage test, it is proved that the asymmetric conductor bundle proposed in this paper can reduce the average maximum electric field of the phase conductors and the corona noise more than the conventional symmetric conductor bundle and asymmetric conductor bundle by GE.
